In the current issue of the European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (EJNMMI), Yoo et al. [1] reported that [64Cu][Cu(ATSM-FITC)] positron emission tomography (PET) could accurately detect hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in brain pathophysiology, opening a new horizon for detecting neuroinflammation by mapping H2S level. In the below paragraphs, we first would like to introduce several targets and associated tracers used for detecting neuroinflammation and then the theranostic potential of [64Cu]Cu-ATSM in preclinical and clinical settings. At the end of the manuscript, we will highlight the findings and potential applications of [64Cu][Cu(ATSM-FITC)] reported by Yoo et al. By introducing the background and the most recent proceedings, readers may get a balanced understanding of the relevant information. …Anzeige
