Fluorocholine 18F

(18F) Fluorocholine, a positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical is used for diagnostic purposes in conjunction with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Choline is an important component in the buildup of phospholipid cell membranes; hence, fast proliferating cells may express high choline uptake. This property has been utilized in several PET studies with (18F) fluoromethylcholine for the detection and differential diagnosis of prostate cancer, breast carcinoma, hyperparathyroidism and brain tumors.
