Fluorine-18-Labeled Antibody Ligands for PET Imaging of Amyloid-β in Brain
Antibodies are attractive as radioligands due to their outstanding specificity and high affinity, but their inability to cross the blood–brain barrier (BBB) limits their use for CNS targets.

Improved detection of molecular markers of atherosclerotic plaques using sub-millimeter PET imaging [PDF]
Since atherosclerotic plaques are small and sparse, their non-invasive detection via PET imaging requires both highly specific radiotracers as well as imaging systems with high sensitivity and resolution.
