Oxygen-15 labelled water
text:
Oxygen-15 labelled water (also known as ⁱ⁵O-water, [O-15]-H2O, or H2ⁱ⁵O) is a radioactive variation of regular water, in which the oxygen atom has been replaced by oxygen-15 (ⁱ⁵O), a positron-emitting isotope. ⁱ⁵O-water is used as a radioactive tracer for measuring and quantifying blood flow using positron emission tomography (PET) in the heart, brain and tumors. Due to its free diffusibility, ⁱ⁵O-water is considered the non-invasive gold standard for quantitative myocardial blood flow (MBF) stu
