 Cerenkov luminescence endoscopy (CLE) is an optical technique that captures the Cerenkov photons emitted from highly energetic moving charged particles (?<

 +<
 /sup>
  or ?<
 sup>
 $-$<
 /sup>
 ) and can be used to monitor the distribution of many clinically available radioactive probes. A main limitation of CLE is its limited sensitivity to small concentrations of radiotracer, especially when used with a light guide. We investigated the improvement in the sensitivity of CLE brought about by using a ?<
 sup>
 $-$<
 /sup>
  radiotracer that improved Cerenkov signal due to both higher ?-particle energy and lower ? noise in the imaging optics because of the lack of positron annihilation. Here, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of <
 sup>
 90<
 /sup>
 Y was compared with that of <
 sup>
 18<
 /sup>
 F in both phantoms and small-animal tumor models. Sensitivity and noise characteristics were demonstrated using vials of activity both at the surface and beneath 1 cm of tissue. Rodent U87MG glioma xenograft models were imaged with radiotracers bound to arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) peptides to determine the SNR. As a result, ? noise from <

 F was demonstrated by both an observed blurring across the field of view and a more pronounced fall-off with distance. A decreased ? background and increased energy of the ? particles resulted in a 207-fold improvement in the sensitivity of <

 Y compared with <

 /sup>
 F in phantoms. <

 Y-bound RGD peptide produced a higher tumor-to-background SNR than <

 F in a mouse model. In conclusion, the use of <
