Impact of the molar activity and PSMA expression level on [18F]AlF-PSMA-11 uptake in prostate cancer
Abstract This two-part preclinical study aims to evaluate prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) as a valuable target for expression-based imaging applications and to determine changes in target binding in function of varying apparent molar activities (MAapp) of [18F]AlF-PSMA-11. For the evaluati...
