“…It has been stated that 18 F-FDG could be better in detecting liver lesions [10,11] because of physiologic 131 I-MIBG distribution in the liver, this hypothesis was not confirmed by our results in 3 patients having hepatic lesions.…”

“…Koopmans et al [74] evaluated 53 patients in a prospective single-center diagnostic accuracy study using 18F-DOPA PET, conventional CT and SRS without any CT correlation, and reported that 18F-DOPA PET detected more lesions, more positive regions and more lesions per region as compared with the other modalities. Reported sensitivities at the patient, region and lesion levels were 100%, 95% and 96%, respectively.…”
