Fig. 3From: The effect of purification of Ga-68-labeled exendin on in vivo distributionPET images of BALB/c nude mice after injection of 3 MBq 68Ga-DOTA-exendin-3. PET was acquired 1 h p.i. after euthanasia with an acquisition time of 45 min. High liver uptake is seen when the unpurified tracer is injected (a). Gel filtration partially removed the 68Ga-colloid (b), whereas no liver uptake was observed when 68Ga-DOTA-exendin-3 was purified by RP-HPLC (c) or SPE (d)Back to article page
