Maximum intensity projection (MIP) image from MicroPET scans of mice bearing B16F1 melanoma (right panel) and HT-29 human colorectal (left panel) tumor xenograft. An intense uptake of radioactivity is seen in B16F1 tumor. In contrast, HT 29 tumor shows a significantly low uptake and it is quite difficult to visualize this tumor on microPET images (left panel). Eyes show a distinct uptake pattern in B16F1 tumor bearing mice (right panel). Additionally, the uptake of radiotracer in skin of black mice (C57/BL6) was evident from darker background (right panel) in comparison to lack of such uptake in the skin for HT-29 tumor bearing athymic mice (left panel)
