An overview of clinical PET/CT
This article is intended to provide an overview of various aspects of clinical PET/CT. These include discussions of: (i) Important areas of clinical application; (ii) Opportunities in clinical research; (iii) Scanner and operating-mode considerations (e.g. BGO vs. LSO, LYSO or GSO scanners, 2D vs. 3D imaging). (iv) Study-specific considerations (e.g. patient preparation and positioning is...
متن کاملAn Overview of DNA Repair in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neuron disease (MND), is an adult onset neurodegenerative disorder characterised by the degeneration of cortical and spinal cord motor neurons, resulting in progressive muscular weakness and death. Increasing evidence supports mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative DNA damage in ALS motor neurons. Several DNA repair enzymes are activated...
متن کاملP61: Pandard Syndrome, Disorders and Treatments Available: An Overview Article
Pendard syndrome is a genetic disorder that is usually associated with hearing loss in children and thyroid status called goiter, and sometimes affects the balance of the person. Researchers estimate that 7 to 8 percent of the total congenital hearing loss is Pandard's syndrome. A sign that a person may have mutated the SLC26A4 gene is a family history of hearing loss in the early days. Another...
متن کاملDelusional Disorders: An Overview
In recent years, delusional disorders have emerged as a focus of clinical research and treatment innovation. Despite these advances, clinicians are still relatively ill informed about this group of disorders. The present review tries to update on historical aspects, current nosology, epidemiology, validity of the concept and treatment strategies for the delusional disorders. Over the years the ...
متن کاملDNA Repair Capacity Correlates with Mutagen Sensitivity in Lymphoblastoid Cell
This study describes a correlation between cellular DNA repair capacity and the frequency of mutagen-induced in vitro chromosomal breaks in selected lymphoblastoid cell lines. Two assays, host cell reactivation (HCR) assay for measuring cellular DNA repair capacity and in vitro mutagen sensitivity assay, have recently been shown to be useful biomarkers for such susceptibility. Increased in vitr...
