Incidental Finding of Cerebellar Medulloblastoma on 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT in a Patient With Appendiceal Carcinoid

Mico Chan et al. Clin Nucl Med. 2016 Nov.

Abstract

Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT is increasingly used to image somatostatin receptor expressing tumors. Various intracranial tumors including medulloblastoma are known to express somatostatin receptors. We present a case of incidental cerebellar medulloblastoma on a staging Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT for appendiceal carcinoid.
