Misleading 68 GALLIUM‐dotatate PET scan in a patient with a history of a phaeochromocytoma: Unsuspected uptake in papillary thyroid carcinoma metastases

Scanning for somatostatin receptors using 68 Ga‐dotatate positron emission tomography with co‐registration with computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging is now in widespread use for the identification of neuroendocrine tumours, phaeochromocytomas, and paragangliomas and their metastases. We present a case where a patient with a phaeochromocytoma showed uptake in her neck considered diagnostic of a head‐and‐neck paraganglioma, which was...
