Targeted systemic radiotherapy constitutes the systemic administration of a radioactive agent that targets a molecule expressed preferentially on cancer cells. The archetypal such therapy is 131-iodine ((131)I) therapy for differentiated th...

By virtue of its high affinity for the norepinephrine transporter (NET), [(131)I]metaiodobenzylguanidine ([(131)I]MIBG) has been used for the therapy of tumors of neuroectodermal origin for more than 25 years. Although not yet universally a...

As an analogue of adrenergic neurotransmitter norepinephrine (NE), metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) demonstrates high uptake both in normal sympathetically innervated tissues, such as the heart and salivary glands, and in tumors that express ...
