dihydroxyphenylalanine and Digestive System Neoplasms

dihydroxyphenylalanine has been researched along with Digestive System Neoplasms in 2 studies

Dihydroxyphenylalanine: A beta-hydroxylated derivative of phenylalanine. The D-form of dihydroxyphenylalanine has less physiologic activity than the L-form and is commonly used experimentally to determine whether the pharmacological effects of LEVODOPA are stereospecific.
dopa : A hydroxyphenylalanine carrying hydroxy substituents at positions 3 and 4 of the benzene ring.

Digestive System Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM.

"Conversely, in noncarcinoid tumors, the extent of the disease was more accurately evaluated in all cases by (111)In-pentetreotide SRS than by (18)F-FDOPA PET."1.33Can fluorodihydroxyphenylalanine PET replace somatostatin receptor scintigraphy in patients with digestive endocrine tumors?
