18F-Fibroblast Activation Protein Inhibitor ([18F]FAPI-74) PET Imaging for Cancer Detection
Fibroblast-activation protein (FAP) is an enzyme that appears in high numbers in certain cancer cells. [18F]FAPI-74 is a new tracer-a substance that is injected into a person s body before an imaging scan. Researchers believe that [18F]FAPI-74 may be able to highlight FAP enzymes more effectively than approved tracers. If so, the new tracer would make it easier to find FAP-positive tumors in the body.
