Ga-68 DOTATOC, Ga-68-labeled somatostatin analogs are important imaging agents to detect and manage neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). The SNMMI formed the 68Ga Users Group to advance the use of these imaging agents in the US. Members of the Users Group developed harmonized release criteria, an imaging manual, generic data collection forms and a draft informed consent form to aid the community in establishing investigator-sponsored trials. In October 2013, the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) received orphan drug designation for Ga-68 DOTATOC.
