Nuclear Medicine keeps on growing in many number of newer features are also being planned clinical areas, from diagnostic imaging to and we will have a new format for the plenary therapy: our procedures are increasingly being sessions, new top-rated oral presentation sessions incorporated into clinical practice, in a variety of and a new ‘Top Trials’ session. settings and diseases. This success is mostly related to a peculiar characteristic of our specialty, namely A further characteristic of our Congress is its the functional approach to medicine. PET imaging multidisciplinarity, and this will be emphasised works so well because of the unique functional in 2020, with a number of sessions bringing information provided to clinicians, and this feature together physicians from many specialties as well is the key to the ongoing rapid diffusion of Nuclear as specialists in radiochemistry and pharmacy, Medicine. physicists and other professionals. In addition, a dedicated track for technologists will be provided. In recent years, the status of the EANM Congress as the world-leading meeting in Nuclear Medicine If all of this still isn’t enough to motivate you to has been firmly established. The number of attend the EANM’20 Congress virtually, we are attendees in 2019 exceeded that in any previous working on providing some extra entertainment to year, with more than 6950 participants, but we make your virtual experience even more fun.

Upon administration, tanibirumab specifically binds to VEGFR2, thereby preventing the binding of its ligand VEGF. This may result in the inhibition of tumor angiogenesis and a decrease in tumor nutrient supply. VEGFR2 is a pro-angiogenic growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase expressed by endothelial cells, while VEGF is overexpressed in many tumors and is correlated to tumor progression.

ABSTRACT Tumor glucose metabolism and amino acid metabolism are usually enhanced, 18F-FDG for tumor glucose metabolism PET imaging has been clinically well known, but tumor amino acid metabolism PET imaging is not clinically familiar. Radiolabeled amino acids (AAs) are an important class of PET/CT tracers that target the upregulated amino acid transporters to show elevated amino acid metabolism in tumor cells. Radiolabeled amino acids were observed to have high uptake in tumor cells but low in normal tissues and inflammatory tissues.
