Abstract:
Targeted therapy of cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) requires accurate estimation of EGFR expression in tumors. Molecular image is a molecular probe binds to a specific target molecule of a cell and detected by PET/CT, which can be used to evaluate the expression of the target molecule non-invasively, repeatedly in real time. The research advances of various EGFR molecular probes for PET were reviewed in this article.
