68Ga-BBN-RGD PET/CT for GRPR and Integrin α v β 3 Imaging in Patients with Breast Cancer

Conclusion: This study demonstrated significant uptake of a new type of dual integrin αvβ3 and GRPR targeting radiotracer in both the primary lesion and the metastases of breast cancer. 68Ga-BBN-RGD PET/CT may be of great value in discerning both primary breast cancers, axillary lymph node metastasis and distant metastases.
