#2028 Education and Preparation for Nuclear Medicine Procedures in Neuroendocrine Tumor Patients

Introduction: In 2007, a coalition of health care organizations formed around the a unified goal of improving imaging safety and quality for adults (Image Wisely) and children (Image Gently). In 2008, the Society of Nuclear Medicine (SNMMI) joined this coalition, embracing its role in providing outreach to the patient community. The Society has created an annual patient program to reach patients and caregivers, and is continually seeking input from the patient community to improve the program and other online educational resources.

#1870 Detection of Metastatic Insulinoma with 68Ga-NODAGA-Exendin-4 PET/CT in a Young Child – A Case Report

Introduction: Malignant insulinomas are extremely rare in children. Localizing metastases of insulinoma is challenging. Imaging modalities like CT and MRI show limited results. Somatostatin-receptor (SSTR) imaging (SRS) performs better. However, a subgroup of malignant insulinoma lack SSRT-2 and can, therefore, not be localized using SRS. We propose that in these cases GLP-1R imaging, using the stable GLP-1 analog exendin, could play an important role.
