Description

The objective was to study the contribution of the PET-T.D.M. to the dihydro phenylalanine labelled with 18F (18F-DOPA) in the therapy follow up of patients with antecedents of thyroid medullar carcinomas and suspicion of biological recurrence. In spite of the very preliminary character of these results, these first cases show the interest of the PET-T.D.M. with 18F-DOPA in the therapy follow up and the coverage of patients reached by thyroid medullar carcinoma in biological recurrence.
