This presumes that 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT imaging is superior to 18F-FDG imaging in detecting the primary tumor in breast cancer, thereby suggesting the replacement of FAPI by 18F-FDG in breastcancer staging in the future

📌 3 Key Takeaways

Abstract

A female patient diagnosed of infiltrative breast carcinoma using tru-cut biopsy underwent 18flourine-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for staging. The tumor was located in the superior external quadrant of the right breast, and did not exhibit pathological uptake in 18F-FDG PET/CT. Later, gallium-68 (68Ga) fibroblast activation protein-specific inhibitor (FAPI)-04 PET/ CT imaging was performed and the primary tumor showed intense radiotracer accumulation. This presumes that 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT imaging is superior to 18F-FDG imaging in detecting the primary tumor in breast cancer, thereby suggesting the replacement of FAPI by 18F-FDG in breastcancer staging in the future

Özet

Tru-cut biyopsi sonucu infiltratif meme karsinomu gelen bir kadın hastaya evreleme amacıyla 18fluoride-florodeoksiglikoz (18F-FDG) pozitron emisyon tomografi/bilgisayarlı tomografi (PET/BT) görüntüleme yapıldı. Sağ meme üst dış kadranda yer alan tümör, 18F-FDG PET/BT’de patolojik aktivite tutulumu göstermedi. Daha sonra hastaya galyum-68 (68Ga)-fibroblast aktivasyon protein spesifik inhibitör (FAPI)-04 PET/BT görüntüleme yapıldı ve primer tümör yoğun radyofarmasötik tutulumu gösterdi. Bu olgu 68Ga-FAPI PET/BT görüntülemenin meme kanserinde primer tümörleri tespit etmede 18F-FDG görüntülemeden üstün olabileceğini göstermiştir ve gelecekte meme kanseri evrelemesinde 18F-FDG’nin yerini FAPI’nın alabileceğini düşündürmektedir.
