Using the PET/CT radiotracer [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-mDesmo to target V1b receptors and localize corticotropinoma in Cushing’s disease
22 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
Cushing’s disease, the most common cause of Cushing’s syndrome, is driven by pituitary tumors (corticotropinoma) and characterized by the overexpression of CRH R1 and V1b receptors. Accurate detection of these tumors remains challenging. This study aims to develop and evaluate a corticotropinoma specific radiopharmaceutical, [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-mDesmo, that targets the V1b receptor for both anatomical and functional...
