Figure 10 Gallium 68 DOTATATE positron emission tomography/computed tomography of a patient with histologically proven abdominal paraganglioma. For pre-therapy staging. A: Axial computed tomography (CT) and fused positron emission tomography/CT (PET/CT) image of the abdomen demonstrates an intensely DOTATATE avid mass in the inter aorto-caval region (white arrow), correlating with the primary tumor; B: Axial CT and fused PET/CT image of the abdomen shows a peritoneal mass adjacent to the spleen that shows avid tracer uptake (white arrow). This is compatible with a peritoneal deposit.
