Imaging of Integrin αβ Expression Using Ga-RGD Positron Emission Tomography in Pediatric Cerebral Infarct
Enhanced expression of integrin α v β 3 is commonly used as a biomarker for angiogenesis, which is one of the key pathophysiologic processes in cerebral infarct. Integrin α v β 3 can be imaged with arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) peptide agents. In this study, characteristics of positron emissi...
