The exploitation of 3γ imaging may open up a new area of interest in medical positron emission tomography (PET) as a new analytical method to detect hypoxic tumour in oncology. The 3γ yield was measured in normoxic and hypoxic environments where AnaeroGen™ was used to generate the hypoxic environment. The percentage of the coincidence events qualified as 3γ was found to be 26.5% higher in the hypoxic environment.
