Abstract

Detectably labelled non-receptor mediated cell-associating compounds are provided for use in the diagnostic imaging of target sites in a mammal. Cell-associating compounds may be directly labelled, or labelled via a chelating compound to form a conjugate. Such cell-associating compounds are particularly useful to image target sites such as tumour sites and sites of infection.
