Metastatic pattern and its prognostic value in well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors

#3809

Introduction: The metastatic pattern of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and its potential prognostic value has not been well elucidated.

Aim(s): To explore the metastatic pattern of NETs from different primary sites and the potential role of metastatic lesions in different organs during disease progression.

Materials and methods: Patients with well-differentiated NETs from our center who underwent 68Ga-DOTANOC PET-CT scans from November 2016 to April 2019 were retrospectively included. A progression event was defined as disease progression based on RECIST 1.1 under a medical treatment.
