Imaging lung cancer by scintigraphy with indium 111-labeled F(ab')2 fragments of the anticarcinoembryonic antigen monoclonal antibody F023C5

Abstract

Anti-CEA FO23C5-F(ab')2 fragments are not yet "magic bullets" for perfect diagnoses; however, their staging potential seems to be remarkable. Technical improvements, single-photo emission CT, and the use of such fragments in combination with other imaging techniques might enable researchers to further improve the current results.
