[68  Ga]-DOTATATE PET/MR-based evaluation of physiologic somatostatin receptor 2 expression in the adult pituitary gland as a function of age and sex in a prospective cohort

ConclusionThis study provides an empiric profiling of the physiological [68  Ga]-DOTATATE avidity of the pituitary gland. The findings suggest that SUV may vary by age and sex and can help guide the use of [68 Ga]-DOTATATE PET/MRI in clinical and research settings. Future studies can build on these findings to investigate further the relationship between pituitary biology and demographic factors.
