Uptake pattern of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-NOC in tissues: implications for inflammatory diseases. Q J Nucl Med Mol Imaging.
"BACKGROUND: [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-NOC binds to somatostatin receptor (SSTR) subtypes 2 and 5, also expressed on lymphocytes and macrophages, but no information is available about uptake in tissues that might be affected by a chronic inflammatory process. Our aim was to obtain normal reference values for: [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-NOC uptake in tissues prone to chronic inflammation.
