International audience. Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are associated with variable prognosis, with grade 1 and 2 NETs having more favorable outcomes than grade 3. Patients with gastroenteropancreatic (GEP)-NET need individualized interdisciplinary evaluations and treatment. New treatment options have become available with significant improvements in progression-free survival. Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) using (90)Y or (177)Lu-labeled somatostatin analogues (SSTa) has also shown promise in the treatment of advanced progressive NETs. (68)Ga-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclodecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA)-SSTa can be used as companion imaging agents to assist in radionuclide therapy selection. (68)Ga-DOTA-SSTa PET/computed tomography might also provide information for prognosis, tumor response assessment to PRRT, and internal dosimetry.
