Abstract
We demonstrate the clinical case of malignant pancreatic insulinoma. The diagnostic algorythm in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and measures, taken on different stages of treatment, are described. We show the potential of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE positron-emission tomography combined with computed tomography in locating insulinoma, which is very difficult to find, using standart visualisation techniques. 68Ga-DOTA-TATE is a new radiotracer, synthetic somatostatin analogue. The article comes with a short literature review.
