Optimization of iodine labelling for cell tracking


Iodine can be used as contrast-providing label for several imaging methodologies, such as positron emission tomography (PET) or X-ray fluorescence imaging (XFI). Cells can be labelled with iodine containing molecules/nanoparticles via endocytosis. However, there is also loss of label due to exocytosis and redistribution of label by proliferation. It will be discussed which molecules/nanoparticles are best suited for different cell labelling an tracing scenarios.
