[18F]FDG-labelled stem cell PET imaging in different route of administrations and multiple animal species

Abstract Stem cell therapy holds great promise for tissue regeneration and cancer treatment, although its efficacy is still inconclusive and requires further understanding and optimization of the procedures. Non-invasive cell tracking can provide an important opportunity to monitor in vivo cell dist...
