Abstract: PurposeTo investigate the in vivo correlation between 18F-fluoroethyl-tyrosine (18F-FET) uptake and amino acid transporter expression and vascularization in treatment-naive glioblastomas.MethodsA total of 43 stereotactic biopsies were obtained from 13 patients with suspected glioblastoma prior to… read more here.
