Somatostatin receptor expression in Merkel cell carcinoma as target for molecular imaging

BACKGROUND: Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare cutaneous neoplasm with increasing incidence, aggressive behavior and poor prognosis. Somatostatin receptors (SSTR) are expressed in MCC and represent a potential target for both imaging and treatment. METHODS: To non-invasively assess SSTR expressio...
