Overview

Other imaging studies for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 include fluoro-di-glucose-PET, [18F]-fluorodopamine ([18F]DA) PET, and 99mTc-sestamibi scintigraphy.

Other Imaging Studies

Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma

  • Radioactive iodine: lesions do not concentrate radioactive iodine since the tumor does not arise from thyroid follicular cells
  • FDG-PET: avid uptake
  • Tl-201: It has been shown to concentrate Thallium-201[1]
  • I-123 MIBG (metaiodobenzylguanidine): 30% of medullary thyroid cancer show uptake if the thyroid is blocked with Lugol solution prior to the scan

Pheochromocytoma

I-123 MIBG (metaiodobenzylguanidine)

Octreotide (somatostatin) scans

PET

  • 18F Dopa PET is thought to be highly sensitive according to initial results.[3]

Parathyroid Carcinoma
