Modular strategies for PET imaging agents [PDF]
In recent years, modular and simplified chemical and biological strategies have been developed for the synthesis and implementation of positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers. New developments in bioconjugation and synthetic methodologies, in combination with advances in macromolecular delivery systems and gene-expression imaging, reflect a ...

A generator-produced gallium-68 radiopharmaceutical for PET imaging of myocardial perfusion. [PDF]
Lipophilic cationic technetium-99m-complexes are widely used for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI). However, inherent uncertainties in the supply chain of molybdenum-99, the parent isotope required for manufacturing 99Mo/99mTc generators, intensifies ...

The progress of PET/MRI in clinical management of patients with pancreatic malignant lesions
Recently, the morbidity and mortality of pancreatic cancer have been increasing year by year. Because of its deep anatomical location and because most presented patients often suffer from abdominal pain or jaundice, it is difficult to diagnose pancreatic

On the Dissociation Pathways of Copper Complexes Relevant as Pet Imaging Agents
Several bifunctional chelators have been synthesized in the last years for the development of new 64Cu-based PET agents for in vivo imaging. When designing a metal-based PET probe, it is important to achieve high stability and kinetic inertness once the radioisotope is coordinated. Different competitive assays are commonly used to evaluate the possible

Development of [124/125I]IAZA as a New Proteinopathy Imaging Agent for Alzheimer’s Disease
Radioiodinated imaging agents for Aβ amyloid plaque imaging in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients have not been actively pursued. Our previous studies employed the “diaza” derivatives [11C]TAZA and [18F]flotaza in order to develop successful positron ...
