Quantification of [18F]afatinib using PET/CT in NSCLC patients: a feasibility study
Abstract Introduction Only a subgroup of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients benefit from treatment using epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) such as afatinib. Tumour uptake of [18F]afatinib using positron emission tomography (PET) may identify those pati...
