Overview

A somatostatin receptor-targeted PET tracer is a class of diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals used in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to detect and localize tumors that overexpress somatostatin receptors (SSTRs), particularly neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and meningiomas. These tracers typically consist of a somatostatin analog (such as octreotate or octreotide) conjugated to a chelator (like DOTA) and labeled with a positron-emitting radionuclide, most commonly gallium-68 (68Ga) or copper-64 (64Cu). Examples include 68Ga-DOTATATE, 68Ga-DOTATOC, and 64Cu-DOTATATE. By binding with high affinity to SSTRs (primarily SSTR2), these tracers allow for high-resolution imaging of SSTR-positive lesions, aiding in tumor staging, restaging, and selection of patients for somatostatin receptor-targeted therapies (such as peptide receptor radionuclide therapy, or PRRT).
