Kinetic modeling of 68Ga-PSMA-11 and validation of simplified methods for quantification in primary prostate cancer patients

Abstract Background The positron emission tomography (PET) ligand 68Ga-Glu-urea-Lys(Ahx)-HBED-CC (68Ga-PSMA-11) targets the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), upregulated in prostate cancer cells. Although 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET is widely used in research and clinical practice, full kinetic modeli...
