Abstract
This article is a summary of the most up-to-date applications of radiopharmaceuticals to the diagnosis and therapy of benign and malignant diseases involving endocrine or neuroendocrine organs of the head and neck, focusing on radiotracers approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, such as I-123- and I-131-sodium iodide, F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose, Tc99m-sestamibi, as well as the more recently approved tracers Ga-68 DOTATATE and Lu-177 DOTATATE.
