First-in-human in-vivo depiction of paraganglioma metabolism by hyperpolarised 13 C-magnetic resonance.
BJR Case Reports 2023 November
Phaeochromocytomas (PCC) and paragangliomas (PGL), cumulatively referred to as PPGLs, are neuroendocrine tumours arising from neural crest-derived cells in the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Predicting future tumour behaviour and the likelihood of metastatic disease remains problematic as genotype-phenotype correlations are limited, the disease has variable penetrance and, to date, no reliable molecular, cellular or histological markers have emerged. Tumour metabolism quantification can be considered as a method to delineating tumour aggressiveness by utilising hyperpolarised 13 C-MR (HP-MR). The technique may provide an opportunity to non-invasively characterise disease behaviour. Here, we present the first instance of the analysis of PPGL metabolism via HP-MR in a single case.
