[ 99m Tc]-labelled anti-Programmed Death-Ligand 1 single-domain antibody SPECT/CT: a novel imaging biomarker for myocardial PD-L1 expression.

This study is the first to report PD-L1 expression of the heart that can be quantified non-invasively without invasive myocardial biopsy, with high reliability and specificity. This technique can be applied to investigate myocardial PD-L1 expression in ICI-associated myocarditis and cardiomyopathies.
