NCIt definition : A radioconjugate containing a derivative of the androgen testosterone, 16-beta-fluoro-5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone
(FDHT), labeled with the radioisotope fluorine F18 (18F-FDHT), with potential use
as an imaging agent for positron emission tomography (PET). Upon administration, 18F-FDHT
binds to the androgen receptor (AR). Upon PET imaging, AR-expressing prostate tumor
cells can be imaged and assessed.;
