Abstract:
Pediatric nuclear medicine achieve precise functional and metabolic assessments with renal dynamic imaging,bone scintigraphy and 18F-FDG PET/CT,playing irreplaceable role for diagnosis and treatment of pediatric diseases.The emergence of novel molecular imaging probes,such as 68 Ga-DOT AT ATE,18F-DOPA and 18F-MFBG,expand clinical application field of pediatric nuclear medicine,while radionuclide therapy using 131I,131I-MIBG and 177 Lu-DOT AT ATE offer targeted options for pediatric thyroid cancer and neuroendocrine tumors.The current status,challenges and future prospect of pediatric nuclear medicine were reviewed in this article.
