F-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose and Ga-68 Peptide Receptor Imaging of Cervix Mixed Large Cell Carcinoma Patient Presented With Brain Metastasis

Abstract

Cervix mixt adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC) are rare and agressive types which present with metastasis early in the disease course. This case report represents the 18F FDG and Ga-68 DOTATATE PET-CT images of the patient presented with brain metastasis.
