The uptake of the amino acid tracers O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine ([18F]FET), [11C]methyl-L-methionine ([11C]MET), and 3,4-dihydroxy-6-[18F]fluoro-L-phenylalanine ([18F]FDOPA) is mainly based on the increased expression of large neutral amino acid transporters of the l-type (LAT) in gliomas and brain metastases (i.e., subtypes LAT1 and LAT2) [7,34,35,36,37]. This evidence concerns the gene LAT and glioma.
