What's the best way to detect liver metastases?

Hi @mayberries, welcome. I see that you have recently been diagnosed with pancreatic NET and you will soon have surgery. You may be interested in discussions about pancreatic surgery in the:
- Pancreatic Cancer Support Group https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/pancreatic-cancer/
Will you be having Whipple surgery?
I can also see that you are someone who does their research and that you want to be sure that you do not have metastatic NETs. I'm glad that the 68Ga scan showed no spred to the liver. I'm tagging fellow NETs members like @cu2 @trivia @sandy23 @caitrina @dbamos1945 @patrick031621 @mkmn @pjsheridan2022 @immmm @gulzar @links and @kim1965, who can share their experiences and how liver metastasis was discovered and which testing or surveillance they had.
But first, mayberries, I wish you all the best with your upcoming surgery.

Thank you Colleen. I was told I will have a distal pancreatic surgery and that it is now a relatively safe operation to have. I've scheduled a MRI with Eovist contract to look for any potential liver mets but my radioncologiest told me 68Ga is the most accurate.
