Abstract
Positivity of follicular dendritic cell tumor in somatostatin receptor imaging is rare. A 68-year-old woman underwent ultrasound in health examination. The results showed abnormal echoes in the pancreatic head region, suggestive of a neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreatic head. 18 F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT was performed for staging. 18 F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT revealed an irregular mass between the caudate lobe of the liver and the pancreatic head with heterogeneously increased uptake, which was later confirmed as follicular dendritic cell tumor by pathological examination.
