cis-4-[18F]fluoro-L-proline Molecular Imaging Experimental Liver Fibrosis

Introduction: Early-stage liver fibrosis is potentially reversible, but difficult to diagnose. Clinical management would be enhanced by the development of a non-invasive imaging technique able to identify hepatic injury early, before end-stage fibrosis ensues. The analog of the amino acid proline, c...
