Current conventional structural diagnostic modalities do not detect evident of cancer lesions at early stages as they are not cancer-specific. The functional imaging FDG-PET provides the ability to visualize cancer cells based on their increased glucose metabolic activity and can detect tumor presence at early stages that conventional structural diagnostic modalities do not yet detect…

The Problem Cancer detection is currently based on two insufficient imaging techniques: structural and functional. While structural techniques identify anatomic details and provide information on tumor location, size, and spread, based on endogenous contrast, they are ineffective in detecting critical small tumors or metastases.The main functional imaging technique, FDG-PET, is based on increased glucose metabolic activity…

The Israeli Isotopia Company, in collaboration with Prof. Rachela Popovtzer of Bar-Ilan University, is conducting a joint study to develop a radioactive marker, based on nanoparticles, for the detection of cancer. The goal of this research is to facilitate, for the first time, the distinction between tumors and inflammation. The most common imaging method for…
