Abstract:11 C]metomidate ([ 11 C]MTO) is a radiotracer widely used to detect disorders of adrenocortical origin by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. [ 11 C]MTO PET/computed tomography (PET/CT) is considered a sensitive and specific noninvasive alternative to adrenal vein sampling (AVS) in the management of primary hyperaldosteronism (PHA). Herein, we report a reliable automated procedure for the routine manufacturing of [ 11 C]MTO in current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) conditions on the commercial Synt… Show more
