Fig. 3From: Imaging of fibrogenesis in the liver by [18F]TZ-Z09591, an Affibody molecule targeting platelet derived growth factor receptor βSpecificity of [18F]TZ-Z09591 in human liver biopsies. A Representative Sirius red staining, PDGFRβ immunostaining, autoradiography of [18F]TZ-Z09591, and defined region-of-interest (ROIs) images of human liver biopsies of different fibrosis stages. B Correlation of [18F]TZ-Z09591 uptake in human liver cryosections measured by autoradiography with a fibrosis score estimated by Sirius Red staining (r = 0,8334; p < 0.01). C Correlation of [18F]TZ-Z09591 positive area in human liver cryosections measured by autoradiography with the fibrosis score estimated by Sirius Red staining (r = 0,8403; p < 0.01). n = 9.
