Feasibility of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Imaging in Human Atherosclerotic Plaque Using Zr-Bevacizumab Positron Emission Tomography

Feasibility of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Imaging in Human Atherosclerotic Plaque Using Zr-Bevacizumab Positron Emission Tomography

Intraplaque angiogenesis is associated with the occurrence of atherosclerotic plaque rupture. Cardiovascular molecular imaging can be used for the detection of rupture-prone plaques. Imaging with radiolabeled bevacizumab, a monoclonal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A, can depict VEGF...
