Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pancreatic beta cell mass is thought to be useful biomarker for diabetes, but so far the only way to measure beta cell mass is the biopsy, which is so invasive that it cannot be done before diagnosis nor so many times even after diagnosis. Therefore, non-invasive method to quantify the beta cell mass is needed. Positron Emission Tomograpy (PET) has good sensitivity and quantificapability, compared with other imaging modalities. Our goal is to establish non-invasive measurement of beta cell mass with PET. We performed PET studies with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs and revealed that they were good candidates for evaluation of beta cell mass.
