Representative SV2A PET images comparing synaptic density in healthy and disease states. The left panel shows F-18 SynVesT-1 PET distribution volume (VT) maps of the brain and spinal cord in a naïve control mouse and a mouse with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model of multiple sclerosis. The right panel shows Cu-11 UCB-J PET images of the brain of a 46-year-old male healthy control (left) and 43-year-old female MS patient (right).

(A-C) Representative whole-body maximum-intensity projection images and regional fused PET/CT images from three histologically confirmed osteosarcoma patients who underwent paired [68Ga]Ga-B7-H3-BCH PET/CT and 18F-FDGE PET/CT within seven days. (D) Multimodal imaging evaluation of Patient Three, including x-ray, MRI (T2-weighted imaging, T2WI), CT, and B7-H3 PET/CT.

SNMMI: CAIX-targeted PET tracer detects clear cell renal cell carcinoma
By Liz Carey
Researchers aim for "more precise molecular map" for kidney cancer.
June 1, 2026
A 68Ga-RCC78 PET scan (C) of a patient four years post-radical right nephrectomy. During follow-up, new nodules were detected in the left adrenal gland and kidney. CAIX-targeted scan clearly visualized metastatic lesions in the mediastinum, pancreas, adrenal gland, and kidney (SUVmax > 30), demonstrating the tracer's ability to maintain high tumor uptake despite significantly reduced abdominal background.
