Abstract
Cu-WBC labeling efficiency and viability were comparable or superior to In-WBCs and significantly higher than FDG-WBCs. Although significantly more activity eluted from Cu-WBCs than from In-WBCs, Cu-WBC probably is adequate for imaging. These data suggest that further investigation of in vitro copper-64-labeled leukocytes for PET imaging of infection is warranted.
