Outline of Final Research Achievements |
C-11 labeled aminolevulinic acid derivative ([C-11]MALA) was developed as an imaging prove to estimate tumor protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) accumulation indecued by exogenous aminolevulinic acid (ALA). Tumor accumulation of [C-11]MALA was correlated with that of PpIX induced by ALA, suggesting that [C-11]MALA-PET has the potential to estimate ALA-induced PpIX accumulation.
