CONTEXT: Localization of phosphatonin-producing mesenchymal tumours in patients with primary tumour-induced osteomalacia (pTIO) is challenging. Functional imaging plays an important role in the localization of these tumours. OBJECTIVE: We studied the relative performance of different functional imaging modalities ((18) F-FDG PET/CT, (99) Tc-HYNIC-TOC SPECT/CT and (68) Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT) in tumour localization in cases of pTIO. DESIGN AND METHODS: Retrospective chart evaluation of 16 patients with confirmed TIO treated from 2006 to 2013 was conducted in a tertiary care referral centre. RESULTS: Of 16, nine patients had pTIO. In these nine, the positivity rates of different functional imaging modalities were 50% for (18) F-FDG PET/CT (four of eight patients), 100% for (99) Tc-HYNIC-TOC SPECT/CT (six of six patients) and 100% for (68) Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT (seven of seven patients). Of nine patients, six were subjected to both the (99) Tc-HYNIC-TOC SPECT/CT and (68) Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and all of them showed coregistration on the two scans. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with pTIO, the somatostatin receptor-based functional scans performed better than (18) F-FDG PET/CT in tumour localization. Amongst the somatostatin receptor-based scans, (99) Tc-HYNIC-TOC SPECT/CT and (68) Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT performed equally well for localization of tumours.
