Objective:
A novel PET radiotracer, (124)I-cG250, is currently under clinical investigation to distinguish clear cell renal cell carcinoma from other benign and malignant renal masses. In this article, we will make suggestions on the data needed to maximize the use of this radiotracer.
Conclusion:
Although the published data are promising, further data are needed to assess the potential usefulness of this agent when dealing with indeterminate renal masses.
