Comparison between MRI and SSTR PET-CT in the detection of primary pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor and hepatic metastases. (a) Axial Gd-enhanced T1 FS MRI image of the upper abdomen demonstrates increased signal in multiple hepatic metastases (white arrowhead) and in the primary lesion in the tail of the pancreas (white arrow). (b) Axial [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE PET-CT through the same regions shows intensely PET-positive lesions in the liver (white arrowhead) and the tail of the pancreas (white arrow), with similar detection to MRI.
