Ex vivo measurements of accumulation of exendin-based PET and SPECT tracers in rat kidney. The renal clearance of [18F]exendin-4 (blue) was rapid, and the radioactivity in kidney was significantly lower at all investigated time points, compared to other, metal-labeled, exendin-based tracers designed for PET and SPECT analyses [2, 3, 41]. Ex vivo autoradiography images (blue inset) show the decreasing [18F]exendin-4 accumulation in the kidney cortex at 60, 120, and 360 min p.i.
