In vivo evaluation of novel CCR2 targeting radioligand reported

Feb. 5, 2025
Researchers from Astrazeneca plc and Karolinska Institutet have described the positron emission tomography (PET) evaluation of [11C]AZD-2423, a chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) radioligand in non-human primate (NHP) brain imaging.
