In collaboration with Scientists and Clinicians at TRIUMF and the BCC, we initiated the first 18F-EF5 PET clinical studies in Canada for lung cancer and prostate cancer. Further studies to examine hypoxia in ovarian, and head and neck cancers have also been carried out. Pre-clinical studies carried out by my group formed the impetus for the clinical studies. Our group also supported the production 18F-EFT for clinical use.
