Radiation exposure from diagnostic nuclear medicine examinations in Golestan province
Introduction: The aim of present study was to estimate effective dose from most common procedures performed in nuclear medicine departments of Golestan province. Methods: Data of nuclear medicine procedures performed in 2 nuclear medicine departments in Golestan province were collected during 4 years. Effective dose, collective effective dose and effective dose per examination were calculated ...
متن کاملFlexible combination of multiple diagnostic biomarkers to improve diagnostic accuracy
BACKGROUND In medical research, it is common to collect information of multiple continuous biomarkers to improve the accuracy of diagnostic tests. Combining the measurements of these biomarkers into one single score is a popular practice to integrate the collected information, where the accuracy of the resultant diagnostic test is usually improved. To measure the accuracy of a diagnostic test, ...
متن کاملStaff and patient absorbed doses due to diagnostic nuclear medicine procedures
Background: Annual patient effective dose equivalent can be considered as a quantitative physical parameter describing the activities performed in each nuclear medicine department. Annual staff dose equivalent could be also considered as a parameter describing the amount of radiation risk for performing the activities. We calculated the staff to patient dose equivalent ratio to be used as a phy...

Xenon-133 and xenon-127 were compared by performing ventilation studies with both radionuclides in 19 patients with a variety of lung diseases. Assessment of the counting rate over the chest, relative to the radioactivity in the lungs, permitted the evaluation of each isotope in terms of usable photons detected by a scintillation camera with a large field of view and ap propriate collimili ion....
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of CMR in biopsy-proven acute myocarditis.
Heart failure is a leading problem in clinical cardiology. The causes are diverse, and treatment must be tailored according to underlying mechanisms. Inflammatory causes are a particular challenge. With their study, reported in this issue of iJACC, Francone et al. (2) intend to narrow the gap in our current knowledge regarding the diagnostic workup of inflammatory heart disease, particularly as...
