Abstract

Abstract Monoclonal antibodies directed against tumour‐associated antigens labelled with radioisotopes localize specifically into tumour after intravenous injection. This property is used for diagnostic tumour imaging by immunoscintigraphy and in some clinical situations for radioimmunotherapy.
