gallium Ga 68-NEB

A radiotracer composed of a truncated form of the azo dye Evans blue (EB) conjugated, via a 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-N,N’,N"-triacetic acid (NOTA) linker (NEB), to the radioisotope gallium Ga 68, with potential blood pool imaging activity for use in positron emission tomography (PET). Upon administration of gallium Ga 68-NEB, the NEB moiety, which has high affinity for serum albumin, targets and forms a complex with albumin. Upon PET, the lymph nodes (LN) and lymphatic vessels as well as other desired tissues can be visualized. Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
