High-resolution positron emission microscopy of patient-derived tumor organoids

Positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers measure the metabolic activity in cancer cells in patients. Here, the authors develop a microscopy method to image organoids using clinical radiotracers, which allows a direct comparison to PET imaging in patients.
