Comparative biodistribution study of the new tumor tracer [123I]-2-iodo-L-phenylalanine with [123I]-2-iodo-L-tyrosine.
INTRODUCTION: Both A- and l-type amino acid transport are increased in tumor cells relative to normal tissue; these transport systems have been the major focus of the development of amino acid tumor tracers to overcome the limitations of [(18)F]-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG). The newly developed t...
