Core Tip	This manuscript describes how the advent of fluorine-18L-3, 4-hydroxyphenylalanine positron emission tomography (18F-DOPA-PET) scanning has revolutionised the management of patients with a very complex condition called congenital hyperinsulinism. 18F-DOPA-PET scanning allows the accurate pre-operative localisation of the focal lesion in these patients which can then be surgically removed allowing complete cure from the hypoglycaemia.
