Intratumoral 18F-FLT infusion in metabolic targeted radiotherapy

Intratumoral 18F-FLT infusion in metabolic targeted radiotherapy

Abstract Background The goal of targeted radiotherapy (TRT) is to administer radionuclides to tumor cells, while limiting radiation exposure to normal tissues. 3′-Deoxy-3′-[18F]-fluorothymidine (18F-FLT) is able to target tumor cells and emits a positron with energy appropriate for local (~ 1 mm ran...
