Abstract: Accurate imaging of tumors plays an important role in identifying tumor location and staging,and determining the appropriate treatment methods.Peptides are promising tools in imaging,and the corresponding receptors have been shown to be overexpressed in tumor cells,leading to imaging agents within tumor cells by specifically binding to the receptors.In addition,peptides have attracted more and more attention in tumor diagnosis and treatment due to their small molecular weight,low immunogenicity,high affinity and specificity,and some peptide-based imaging probes and therapeutic agents have successfully entered clinical trials.This article reviews the research progress of peptide probes in tumor imaging.

Key words: Peptides probe, Tumor, Imaging diagnosis
