Abstract
Gallium-68 (68Ga)-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose(18F-FDG) PET/CT were performed for staging in a 51-year-old man with renal cell carcinoma. Compared with 18F-FDG PET/CT, no obvious tracer uptake in right renal mass and less metastatic lesions were found on 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT. Postoperative pathology demonstrated the diagnosis of fumarate hydratase-deficient renal cell carcinoma (FHRCC).
期刊介绍:
The Hellenic Journal of Nuclear Medicine published by the Hellenic Society of
Nuclear Medicine in Thessaloniki, aims to contribute to research, to education and
cover the scientific and professional interests of physicians, in the field of nuclear
medicine and in medicine in general. The journal may publish papers of nuclear
medicine and also papers that refer to related subjects as dosimetry, computer science,
targeting of gene expression, radioimmunoassay, radiation protection, biology, cell
trafficking, related historical brief reviews and other related subjects. Original papers
are preferred. The journal may after special agreement publish supplements covering
important subjects, dully reviewed and subscripted separately.
