AI Article Synopsis
- Ga-pentixafor is a ligand for CXCR4 and shows promise as a PET tracer for assessing different medical conditions.
- The text discusses its notable effectiveness in PET/CT imaging for two patients diagnosed with adrenal adenomas.
- These adenomas were identified as the underlying cause of the patients' Conn syndrome, a condition related to hormonal imbalance.
Article Abstract
Ga-pentixafor, a ligand of CXCR4 (CXC chemokine receptor type 4), has been reported as a potential PET tracer to evaluate a variety of pathological entities. We report intense Ga-pentixafor activity on PET/CT in 2 patients in the histopathologically confirmed adrenal adenomas, which were the cause of their Conn syndrome.
