“…, size, shape, charge, and porosity to name a few) also guides their biocompatibility and biodegradability when administered in vivo . 126, 129 As a result, these parameters need to be analytically evaluated at the preclinical level, and also at the clinical level wherever appropriate, to obtain fundamental information on biodistribution, toxicity, and biocompatibility of radiolabeled nanoparticles in order to maximize their chances for clinical success. 129 Additionally, detailed dosimetry studies would be required before administration of clinically relevant doses of the radiolabeled nanoparticles in human subjects for PET imaging of cancer.…”
