pubmed-article:15186595 | pubmed:abstractText | With the introduction of positron-emitting radionuclides with half-lifes in days, such as 89Zr and 124I, radioimmunoscintigraphy (RIS) with positron-emitter-labeled monoclonal antibodies (moAbs) becomes feasible. RIS, using positron emission tomography (immuno-PET), combines the specific localization of an antibody with the high resolution of a PET camera. In the present study, scintigraphic tumor imaging using chimeric moAb G250 labeled with 89Zr (immuno-PET) or 111In (RIS), and [18F]FDG-(PET) was explored in rats with s.c. renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tumors. | lld:pubmed |
