Abstract:
We present a novel solid-phase based (45)Ti radiolabeling methodology and the implementation of (45)Ti-PET in titanium-based antineoplastics using the showcase compound [(45)Ti](salan)Ti(dipic). This development is intended to allow elucidation of the biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of promising new Ti-based therapeutics.
