PEPTIDE CONJUGATES, THEIR DERIVATIVES WITH METALLIC COMPLEXES, AND THEIR USE TO THE IMAGING MAGNETIC RESONANCE

摘要

The present invention relates to a novel class of contrast agents for use in nuclear magnetic resonance (MRI), to identify and locate primary human tumours and their metastases which over-express type CCK A and/or type B cholecystokinin receptors, and/or type SSTR 1-5 somatostatin receptors.
