Purpose Localizing the source of ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion (EAS) is challenging. This study compared the diagnostic value of Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT and F-18-FDG PET/CT in tumors with EAS. Methods Thirty-six patients with a suspicion of EAS were enrolled to undergo both Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT and F-18-FDG PET/CT within 4 weeks for comparison. Twenty-three underwent surgical resection or biopsy. Immunohistochemical staining for SSTR2 and Ki-67 was performed to correlate with Ga-68-DOTATATE uptake and F-18-FDG uptake, respectively.Results EAS tumors were observed in 20/23 patients. Among the 20 patients with histologically proven EAS tumors, Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT correctly identified the tumor in 15 (75.0%), with an SUVmax ranging from 1.4 to 20.7 (6.7 +/- 5.5). F-18-FDG PET/CT correctly identified the tumor in 12 (60.0%) patients, with an SUVmax ranging from 1.8 to 10.0 (4.0 +/- 2.1). Moreover, Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT unmasked the sources of EAS in 6 patients with negative F-18-FDG uptake, and F-18-FDG PET/CT unmasked the sources in 3 patients with negative Ga-68-DOTATATE uptake, resulting in EAS tumors being identified in 18 (90%) patients by combining Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT and F-18-FDG PET/CT.Conclusions Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT and F-18-FDG PET/CT are complementary in localizing and discriminating the source of EAS. Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT combined with F-18-FDG PET/CT had higher detection rate than each alone. URL of registry
