Fig. 3From: PET-CT imaging of pulmonary inflammation using [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATEEx vivo biodistribution of lung, stomach, thymus, trachea and muscle [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE heart muscle ratio uptake on rats. First group was treated with LPS (black) and shows significant difference in lungs and stomach compared with second group treated with LPS together with blocking with octreotide (white). The LPS-treated group also showed a significant difference compared with control group (grey) in the lungs, but not in stomach, thymus or trachea. The negative control tissue muscle had significantly lower uptake in the LPS group compared with lungs (p < 0.0001), thymus (p < 0.001) and trachea (p < 0.01)Back to article page
