Lights or shadows, a promising future for positron emission tomography in pituitary tumors: a systematic review.
The diagnosis of pituitary adenomas (PAs), also called pituitary tumors or neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) currently involves assessment of blood/plasma hormone levels and traditional neuroradiological techniques, with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) being of particular significance. However, Positron Emission Tomography- computerized tomography (PET-CT) has been gaining a more substantial role both for the diagnosis and management of PAs. The present systematic review analyzes the most widely used radiopharmaceuticals in the evaluation of pituitary disorders. We explore the potential utilization of PET with multiple radiopharmaceuticals for individualized diagnosis and therapeutic strategies, highlighting both the constraints and merits of this constantly evolving technique and application in clinical practice.
期刊介绍:
Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders is an international journal dedicated to the field of endocrinology and metabolism. It aims to provide the latest advancements in this rapidly advancing field to students, clinicians, and researchers. Unlike other journals, each quarterly issue of this review journal focuses on a specific topic and features ten to twelve articles written by world leaders in the field. These articles provide brief overviews of the latest developments, offering insights into both the basic aspects of the disease and its clinical implications. This format allows individuals in all areas of the field, including students, academic clinicians, and practicing clinicians, to understand the disease process and apply their knowledge to their specific areas of interest. The journal also includes selected readings and other essential references to encourage further in-depth exploration of specific topics.
