NCT00417131

Brief Summary

Islets of Langerhans intended for clinical transplantation are labelled with a radioactive tracer. The tracer is retained in viable cells of the transplant. At infusion (transplantation) of the islets into the portal vein the tracer can be followed for two hours with positron emission tomography (PET). Imaging and calculations can give estimates of the proportion of surveying islets and the rate of early destruction. Also the distribution of the islets into the liver can be viewed.
