Organ uptake is expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD) in units of percent injected dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g). The tumor uptake is highlighted in bold. Means were statistically compared to the respective organ uptake of 68Ga-NODAGA-JR11 and p values < 0.05, < 0.01, and < 0.001 were expressed as *, ** and *** respectively
