By employing a known sst2 internalizing vector, DOTATATE, and a known non-internalizing vector, DOTALM3, we attempted to determine in vivo diffusion kinetics of a freed positron-emitting daughter 140Pr3+ in tumor-bearing mice. Methods: 140Nd and 134Ce were produced by proton-induced spallation of a tantalum target at ISOLDE, electromagnetically separated, and implanted in a thin zinc layer on gold foils. After dissolving the zinc, the products were chemically separated, reacted with sst2 targeting vectors DOTATATE or DOTALM3, and the 140Nd labeled vectors were i.v. injected into dual-flank H727 xenograft bearing mice (n = 8 for each tracer). PET scans were taken at 1, 3, and 16 hours post injection. Following the last image, the animals were euthanized, and then imaged intact at 30 min post-mortem. The differences between the 16 h PET scan and the post-mortem scan were used to study the diffusion behavior of 140Pr3+ following the parent 140Nd EC decay. Three additional mice were scanned under the same protocol after injection of 140Nd3+ in HEPES-buffered isotonic saline to investigate the free ion distributions in the tumor model.    Results:  In total 950 MBq of 140Nd and 140 MBq of 134Ce were collected at ISOLDE and shipped to Hevesy Lab. 140Nd reactions with DOTATATE and DOTALM3 were efficient at 5 MBq/nmol (n = 2 each). 134Ce labeling was inefficient, and could only be achieved with receptor-saturating levels of the vectors, thereby precluding their use in vivo. The in vivo scans showed only a small difference in the tumor PET signal between pre- and post-mortem scans, with a slight increase in tumor signal post-mortem when DOTALM3 was used. Non-targeted organs, however, showed interesting source and sink behaviors illuminating some properties of the renal and hepatic interaction with neodymium and praseodymium.  Conclusion: Based upon the results of this study we conclude that 140Nd imaging in preclinical models might be possible without designing an electron-capture-dislocation resistant chelate. In such cases, the imaging protocol established here is a useful test to determine how 140Nd PET is altered by diffusion. Further, with careful experimental design it may be possible to exploit the diffusion effects to observe biological phenomena such as vector internalization.
