➡️unclear findings on conventional MRI (psPD/RN vs PD)
➡️contrast clearance analysis with 1 h delayed CE MRI, images were substracted from each other
➡️ histopath confirmation
➡️ overall accuracy very high (84%)
➡️ subgroup of secondary tumors with high benefit (accuracy 94%!)

Therefore a potential new standard? Amino acid PET in a smaller subgroup did not outperform CCA @galldiks , perfusion/DWI more prone to institutional deviations/less potential to be standardized? @gminniti2012
