Abstract: The invention concerns the use of a labelled ligand having specificity for the human CD4 molecule to produce a diagnostic agent for analysing migration and/or distribution patterns of certain cell populations which comprise CD4-bearing cells in human individuals. In addition the invention concerns a composition which comprises a labelled ligand having specificity for the CD4 molecule and CD4-bearing cells or particles, and a method for determining the extent and progression of diseases in which human CD4-bearing cells are of clinical importance.
