Pretargeted positron emission tomography (PET) imaging based on the bioorthogonal inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction between tetrazines (Tz) and <i>trans</i>-cyclooctenes (TCO) has emerged as a promising tool for solid tumor imaging, allowing the use of short-lived radionuclides in immune-PET applications. With this strategy, it became possible to achieve desirable target-to-background ratios and at the same time to decrease the radiation burden to nontargeted tissues because of the fa ...[more]
