Radioactivity Reduction of 2-Deoxy-2-[18F] Fluoro-D-Glucose by Milk and Ursodeoxycholic Acid in Preclinical Study
ConclusionThe present study demonstrated that administration of milk and UDCA increased G6Pase expression levels and18F-FDG release from the tissue. These results suggest milk and UDCA could be used to reduce radiation exposure from18F-FDG after image acquisition. The mechanisms underpinning this phenomenon should be explored in a human study.
