Molecular radionuclide imaging of pancreatic neoplasms

Pancreatic neoplasms have high morbidity and dismal prognosis. Substantial progress in translational research and advances in scanner technology have resulted in rapid integration of molecular radionuclide imaging of pancreatic neoplasms into mainstream clinical practice. Metabolic imaging with 18F-FDG PET has extensive utility in the staging, assessment of treatment response, and follow-up of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Integrated PET/MRI...
