TE-L-Tyrosine (O-Tosyloxyethyl-N-trityl-tyrosine tert-butyl ester or TET) is a precursor for O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (FET) — a widely used F18-labeled amino acid tracer for positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT).
FET is useful in clinical applications for amino acid PET imaging, e.g. amino acid transport in brain tumors and differentiation of tumor tissues. |
