  • Abstract
    PET centers without particle accelerators make clinical PET widely available at reduced cost. For myocardial perfusion tracers, these satellite PET centers are limited to generatorproduced 82Rb+ and 62Cu[PTSM]. Their limitations motivate a search for transportable alternatives. In search of new tracers we have synthesized several 18F-labeled amines and quaternary ammonium salts. Among them, 4-[18F]fluorotri-N-methylanilinium ([18F]FTMA) has flow-tracing properties. The compound is functional, but has properties that justify a continued search.
