Positron Emission Tomographic Imaging of Copper 64– and Gallium 68–Labeled Chelator Conjugates of the Somatostatin Agonist Tyr-Octreotate

The bifunctional chelator and radiometal have been shown to have a direct effect on the pharmacokinetics of somatostatin receptor (SSTR)-targeted imaging agents. We evaluated three Y3-TATE analogues conjugated to NOTA-based chelators for radiolabeling with 64 Cu and 68 Ga for small-animal positron e...
