Background: Physiological focal radiopharmaceutical uptake in the head and uncinate process of the pancreas may be seen on somatostatin receptor-based PET/CT and might lead to false-positive results for neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). We aimed to perform a systematic review and a meta-analysis about the prevalence of this finding. Methods: We performed a comprehensive computer literature search...

The lateral tuberal nucleus (LTN) is a hypothalamic region that has been identified with certainty only in humans and primates. It is composed of three small round globular units which protrude the basal surface of the brain along the optic tract. The function of the LTN is unknown. Recently, a tiny, parvalbumin-positive (PV1) nucleus was detected in the lateral hypothalamus of rodents. Like the...
