Evaluation of D-isomers of 4-borono-2-(18)F-fluoro-phenylalanine and O-(11)C-methyl-tyrosine as brain tumor imaging agents: a comparative PET study with their L-isomers in rat brain glioma

BACKGROUND: The potential of the D-isomerization of 4-borono-2-(18)F-fluoro-phenylalanine ((18)F-FBPA) to improve its target tumor to non-target normal brain tissue ratio (TBR) was evaluated in rat brain glioma and compared with those of L- and D-(11)C-methyl-tyrosine ((11)C-CMT). The L- or D-isomer...
