Sorry, this is not true. 68Ga-labelled DOTATOC, DOTANOC, and DOTATATE are used diagnosis and therapy of NETs for more than 10 years. They are widely available in Europe and in some major US centers. If the new 68Ga-FAPI will be better remains to be seen, I suppose the Heidelberg group will publish some research soon.

I just took him at his word that it was FAPI & was asking if it is available in the US - also I favor PET as a modality b/c it's quantitative. No judgement on a particular tracer.

You are correct it's only in the last several years this Gallium 68 scan has been available in the US, but was available in Europe long before - like many cancer treatments.
