- Title
F-Labelled exendin to image GLP-1 receptor-expressing tissues: from niche to blockbuster?
- Authors
Boerman, Otto; Gotthardt, Martin
- Abstract
The article presents a study on the use of exendin-based positron emission tomography (PET) tracer in imaging insulinoma which may potentially led to the development of another peptide-based tracer for tumour imaging. It notes that the findings reveal that this tracer allows more accurate determination of the extent and localization of insulinoma. The study also found out that exendin can be used in monitoring the survival of transplanted beta cells.
