Correlation of [18F]SiTATE-PET-tracer with somatostatin receptor expression in meningiomas: an exploratory ex vivo histological pilot study
Radioactively labeled somatostatin analogs (SSAs) are used in PET imaging of meningiomas due to the high expression of somatostatin receptor (SSTR) subtype 2. 18F-labeled SSTR-tracers offer several economic and logistical advantages over 68Ga-labeled tracers, such as a cyclotron-based production, higher activities per...
