SUVmax values and ratios of carcinoids on [18F]FDG-PET/CT and [68Ga]DOTATOC-PET/CT
| Tumour histology | SUVmax on [18F]FDG-PET/CT (median and range) | SUVmax on [68Ga]DOTATOC-PET/CT (median and range) | Ratio of SUVmax on [68Ga]DOTATOC-PET/CT to that on F18 FDG-PET/CT | 
|---|---|---|---|
| All carcinoids | 2.8 (0.8–8.4) | 21.6 (1.1–66) | 12.5 (0.2–30) | 
| Typical carcinoids | 2.6 (0.8–3.2) | 33 (8.8–66) | 17.8 (7.8–30) | 
| Atypical carcinoids | 5.9 (2.9–8.4) | 10.3 (1.1–18.5) | 2.1 (0.2–3.9) |
