AI Article Synopsis
- The review covers different types of radiolabeled agents that target specific receptors like somatostatin, benzodiazepine, and dopamine; as well as hormones like progesterone and estrogen.
- It highlights agents that can locate areas of low oxygen (hypoxia) and discusses their effectiveness in identifying angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) and inflammation.
- Finally, the review assesses the current clinical use of these agents and their potential benefits for diagnosis and treatment in medicine.
Article Abstract
This review examines several classes of radiolabeled agents, including analogs localizing in somatostatin, benzodiazepine and dopamine receptors; analogs of progesterone and estrogen; and agents localizing in lesions with hypoxia. It concludes the status of agents advocated for detecting angiogenesis and inflammation. The current clinical status of these agents, and their potential roles in diagnosis and treatment are discussed.
