In vivo evaluation and dosimetry of 123I-2-iodo-D-phenylalanine, a new potential tumor-specific tracer for SPECT, in an R1M rhabdomyosarcoma athymic mouse model.

UNLABELLED: Earlier reports described the preferential uptake of d-amino acids in tumor-bearing mice. Moreover, it was shown that in tumor cells in vitro the L-amino acid transporter system seemed to lack stereospecificity. Because of the successful results with 123/125I-2-iodo-L-phenylalanine, 123...
