Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT is highly sensitive in revealing tumor remnants in patients with meningioma WHO grade 1. Negative PET findings were associated with a higher progression-free survival, thus improving surveillance. In patients with tumor remnants, additional PET can optimize adjuvant radiotherapy target planning of surgically resected meningiomas.
