Diagnostic efficiency of 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT as compared to 99mTc-Octreotide SPECT/CT and conventional morphologic modalities in neuroendocrine tumors
Objective(s): In view of somatostatin receptor (SSR) expression on cell membranes of the majority of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), functional imaging exploiting analogs of SSR alongside the anatomical imaging is the mainstay of this diagnostic modality. In this prospective study, we assessed and directly compared the diagnostic parameters of 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and 99...
متن کاملPreparation, formulation and quality control of one step kit 99mTc- EDDA/HYNIC-Tyr3-Octreotide as a peptide radiopharmaceutical for imaging somatostatin receptor positive tumors [Persian]
The high expression of somatostatin receptors in many tumours, have made receptor scintigraphy with 111In-DTPA-Octreotide a widly used procedure in nuclear medicine. Despite its clinical success, some limitation and drawbacks of radiolabelling with 111In remain, especially those concerned with the cost, availability and physical decay properties of this radionuclide. 99mTc-EDDA/HYNIC-Tyr3...
متن کاملSynthesis, labeling, formulation and quality control of 99mTc-Tricine-HYNIC-Tyr³-Octreotide, a peptide radiopharmaceutical for imaging Somatostatin receptor positive tumors [Persian]
Somatostatin analoges labeled with different radionuclides are able used for imaging and treatment of somatostatin receptor positive tumors. In this study Tyr³-Octreotide protected at lysine as an analoge of somatostatin was conjugated with bifunctional chelating agent 6-BOC-hydrazinopyridine-3-carboxylic acid (BOC-HYNIC) and after deprotecting of conjugate, purification was performed wit...
متن کاملA New Computer-Aided Detection System for Pulmonary Nodule in CT Scan Images of Cancerous Patients
Introduction: In the lung cancers, a computer-aided detection system that is capable of detecting very small glands in high volume of CT images is very useful.This study provided a novelsystem for detection of pulmonary nodules in CT image. Methods: In a case-control study, CT scans of the chest of 20 patients referred to Yazd Social Security Hospital were examined. In the two-dimensional and ...
متن کامل99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT imaging contribution in the diagnosis of patients with hyperparathyroidism
Introduction: Hyperparathyroidism is presented with increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion due to hyperfunctioning of one or more of the four parathyroid glands. Primary hyperparathyroidism (p-HPT) can be due to parathyroid adenoma, hyperplasia or carcinoma of the parathyroid gland. Secondary hyperparathyroidism (s-HPT) is usually a response to hypocalcaemia and consecut...
