Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children and arises from anywhere along the sympathetic nervous system. It is a highly heterogeneous disease with a wide range of prognosis, from spontaneous regression or maturing to highly aggressive. About half of pediatric neuroblastoma patients develop the metastatic disease at diagnosis, which carries a poor prognosis. Nuclear medicine plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis, staging, response assessment, and long-term follow-up of neuroblastoma. And it has also played a prominent role in the treatment of neuroblastoma. Because the structure of metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is similar to that of norepinephrine, 90% of neuroblastomas are MIBG-avid. 123I-MIBG whole-body scintigraphy is the standard nuclear imaging technique for neuroblastoma, usually in combination with SPECT/CT. However, approximately 10% of neuroblastomas are MIBG nonavid. PET imaging has many technical advantages over SPECT imaging, such as higher spatial and temporal resolution, higher sensitivity, superior quantitative capability, and whole-body tomographic imaging. In recent years, various tracers have been used for imaging neuroblastoma with PET. The importance of patient-specific targeted radionuclide therapy for neuroblastoma therapy has also increased. 131I-MIBG therapy is part of the front-line treatment for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. And peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with radionuclide-labeled somatostatin analogues has been successfully used in the therapy of neuroblastoma. Moreover, radioimmunoimaging has important applications in the diagnosis of neuroblastoma, and radioimmunotherapy may provide a novel treatment modality against neuroblastoma. This review discusses the use of current and novel radiopharmaceuticals in nuclear medicine imaging and therapy of neuroblastoma.Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
