Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Patients with lesions on the 68Ga-DOTATATE-PET-CT scan suspected for a SI-NET; OR - Patients with biopsy proven SI-NET; AND - With the primary SI-NET in situ; - >= 18 years old; - Obtained informed consent according to ICH/GCP, and national/local regulations.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary objective of this study is to assess feasibility of intraoperative visualization of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NET). Feasibility is defined as a Tumor-to-Background Ratio (TBR) of >= 1.5 in at least 60% of the patients. TBR will be assessed based on in vivo measurements on the primary SI-NET.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- To asses the ex vivo TBR of the primary SI-NET - To assess the TBR of (lymph node) metastases; - To assess the number of extra (occult) lesions found and their fluorescence intensity; - To assess fluorescence signal on the pathology slides; - To assess the optimal dose of ICG to visualize the primary tumor.
