Re: [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-DATA^5m.SA.FAPi PET/CT: Specific Tracer-uptake in Focal Nodular Hyperplasia and potential Role in Liver Tumor Imaging

In a recent case report, Kreppel et al. [1] reported a high uptake of ⁶⁸Ga-labelled FAPi in a focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) in a 44-year-old female. High FAPi uptake was observed, and its possible indications were discussed. According to the authors, the diagnosis of FNH is usually based on sonography, contrast-enhanced CT, or MRI, which correspond to routine approaches.
