  • Title: 68Ga DOTATATE PET/CT Imaging of Elastofibroma Dorsi.
    Author: Ishiyama M, Vesselle H.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2018 May; 43(5):e154-e155. PubMed ID: 29485441.
    Abstract:
    Sixty six-year-old woman status post ileocecal resection for well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor in the terminal ileum 7 years ago, who is on octreotide therapy for liver metastases. Ga DOTATATE PET/CT showed soft tissue masses with mildly increased radiotracer uptake in the bilateral subscapular/infrascapular regions. In retrospective image review, these soft tissue masses were first noted 7 years prior and have gradually increased in size over the years. Given the characteristic location and imaging findings, these masses are consistent with benign elastofibroma dorsi instead of metastasis.
