Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) is a crucial mediator of tumour angiogenesis. High expression levels of the receptor have been correlated to poor prognosis in cancer patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics and angiogenesis imaging abilities of the VEGFR2-targeting positron emission tomography (PET) tracer (R)-[11C]PAQ. [...] Whole slides were captured using a 10x [...] primary objective on a VSlide slide scanning microscope [...]. Individual field-of-view images were stitched to produce images of entire lung sections with microscopic resolution. Images were analysed using the (VSViewer) software [...]. The results indicate that (R)-[11C]PAQ is a promising imaging biomarker for visualization of angiogenesis, based on VEGFR2 expression, in primary tumours and during metastasis development.
