The NCI Technology Transfer Center has an upcoming NIH Technology Opportunity Webinar
May 28, 2025 | 11:00 AM ET
Radiolabeled Sugars for Imaging of Fungal Infections
Hosted by Joseph Conrad | Featuring Dr. Dima A. Hammoud
Join this free webinar to learn about a novel PET radiotracer, [18F]-fluorocellobiose ([18F]-FCB), developed by NIH researchers. Unlike standard FDG, this agent targets fungal-specific metabolism, enabling early, non-invasive detection and real-time monitoring.
This technology addresses a critical need in diagnosing fungal infections in immunocompromised patients.
