Abstract
This study aimed to develop a method of administering 18F-FDG to the common octopus in order to perform a PET biodistribution assay characterizing glucose metabolism in organs and regenerating tissues. Methods: Seven animals (two of which had a regenerating arm) were anesthetized with 3.7% MgCl2 in artificial seawater and then injected with 18–30 MBq of isosmotic 18F-FDG through either the left branchial...
