Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Detection rate of PGLs using 68Ga-exendin-4 PET/CT | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| • Optimal timepoint for imaging PGLs using 68Ga-exendin-4 PET/CT. • Comparison of quantitative imaging parameters (SUV, tumor-to-background ratio, contract-to-noise ratio) between 68Ga-exendin-4 PET and SSTR PET. • Correlation between GLP-1R expression and tracer uptake in the PGLs. • Correlation quantitative imaging results and IHC data to the genetic origin of the PGLs. | — |
