Radiosynthesis and preclinical evaluation of 4-N-[¹⁸F]FDG-PBA as a novel PET tracer for tumor imaging
Conventional [¹⁸F]FDG exhibits inherent drawbacks in liver tumor imaging, especially high physiological uptake in normal hepatic tissues, which severely compromises the diagnostic accuracy of hepatic tumors. To address these limitations, we synthesized a novel tracer, 4-N-[¹⁸F]FDG-PBA, via conjugation of [¹⁸F]FDG...
