Researchers have few tools for understanding what happens in the brain at the earliest stages of neuroinflammatory disorders such as Alzheimer’s or Huntington’s disease. A new signaling molecule that ...

Scientists have developed a new radiotracer (called [18F]4-FDF) that can map how cells use fructose for energy. The vast majority of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging systems map out how the ...

Reston, VA—A new PET radiotracer enables same-day imaging of the important gastrointestinal cancer biomarker known as Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2). Uptake of the radiotracer, 68 Ga-NC-BCH, was found to ...

A novel class of radiopharmaceuticals has proven effective in non-invasively identifying nearly 30 types of malignant tumors. Using 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT, researchers were able to image the tumors with ...

A new PET radiotracer enables same-day imaging of the important gastrointestinal cancer biomarker known as Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2). Uptake of the radiotracer, 68 Ga-NC-BCH, was found to correlate ...

Reston, VA (Embargoed until 4:30 p.m. EDT, Saturday, June 12, 2021)--Positron emission tomography (PET) using a 68Ga-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) can noninvasively identify ...

Bone Health and Bone-Targeted Therapies for Prostate Cancer: American Society of Clinical Oncology Endorsement Summary of a Cancer Care Ontario Guideline Accurate administration of radiotracer dose is ...

An interdisciplinary team from the Institute of Radiopharmaceutical Cancer Research headed by Prof. Peter Brust has won HZDR's (Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf) third Innovation Contest. The ...

Researchers have developed a radiotracer that can detect fructose metabolism, paving the way for a clinically viable tool for the earlier detection of multiple conditions. Fructolysis, the action of ...

Researchers in the U.S. and U.K. have developed what they say is a more accurate way to scan for tuberculosis (TB) using positron emission tomography (PET) to detect the causative Mycobacterium ...
