Abstract
Owing to the recent introduction of gamma cameras with integrated computed tomography imaging capability, which combine functional and anatomical imaging in one device, the direct acquisition of co-registered images has become possible. Multiple studies have concluded that single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) provides an important added value to the conventional somatostatin receptor scintigraphy imaging in the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumours.
