Gd-DTPA-based MR-visible polymer for direct visualization of interventional devices.
We developed a Gd-DTPA (gadolinium(III)-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid)-based coating copolymer of hydrophilic and hydrophobic subunits to obtain visibility, hydrophilicity, and durability for passive visualization of catheters used in MR-guided interventions. We then examined a metal-free catheter coated with the polymer in a phantom and in porcine brain tissue ex vivo. Successful visualiz...
متن کاملPreparation of lecithin microcapsules by a dilution method using the Wurster process for intraarterial administration in gadolinium neutron capture therapy.
Lecithin microcapsules containing gadolinium (Gd) were designed and prepared as a dosage form for intraarterial administration to accumulate Gd in tumors in neutron capture therapy. The microcapsules were composed of 1) a lactose core, 2) a layer of distearylamide of gadopentetic acid (Gd-DTPA-SAm) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) with or without soybean lecithin (SL) and 3) a membrane containing...
متن کاملCMR myocardial infarct evaluation in a canine model by three different contrast agents
We evaluated R1 curves, CNR and scar visualization and quantification in a dog model of myocardial infarction by CMR, using three different contrast agents: Gadopentate dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA, Magnevist), Gadobenate dimeglumine (Gd-BOPTA, MultiHance), and Gadofosveset (Ablavar). Gd-DTPA showed better characteristics for myocardial scar visualization and quantification. Gadofosveset demonstrated l...
متن کاملPreparation of gadopentetic acid-loaded chitosan microparticles for gadolinium neutron-capture therapy of cancer by a novel emulsion-droplet coalescence technique.
Biodegradable gadopentetic acid (Gd-DTPA)-loaded chitosan microparticles (Gd-microCPs) were prepared as a device for gadolinium neutron-capture therapy (Gd-NCT) by a novel emulsion-droplet coalescence technique: a water-in-oil (w/o) emulsion A containing chitosan and Gd-DTPA in droplets and a w/o emulsion B containing NaOH in droplets were mixed and stirred to solidify chitosan as a result of c...
متن کاملDosimetry of a 188rhenium-labeled self-expanding stent for endovascular brachytherapy in peripheral arteries.
PURPOSE Radioactive stents have been proposed as endovascular irradiation device to prevent in-stent restenosis by inhibiting neointimal proliferation. 32P-stents have been used in several studies so far, but require large-scale labeling procedures and endovascular barotrauma for stent expansion supporting the development of edge restenosis. Purpose of this study was to establish dosimetry of a...
