Adrenal masses are highly prevalent tumours comprising of a variety of entities. Therefore, therapeutic consequences also vary considerably. The CYP11B-specific PET-tracer [11C]metomidate has been shown to be suitable to characterize adrenal lesions. However, its availability is restricted to PET-centers with an on-site cyclotron. Also imaging is hindered by the short tracer half-life (20 min). Therefore, we have developed [123I]iodometomidate as a tracer...
