Imaging of cancer by redox-mediated mechanism: a radical diagnostic approach.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present study describes a new diagnostic approach for carcinogenesis based on the different tissue redox activity of normal and cancer-bearing mammalians and its visualization and estimation by cell permeable and DNA annealing probe (nitroxide-labeled nitrosourea) and magnetic resonance imaging.

Mammography remians the procedure of choice in screening asymptomatic women for breast cancer. However, in patients with symptoms, other types of imaging play an important role in the detection of malignancies. The high cost and lack of availability of PET and MRI largely precludes the use in this patient population. TI-201 is nbt the imaging agent of choice because of its wash-out and redistri...
متن کاملCumulative radiation exposure dose of diagnostic imaging studies in breast cancer patients
Background: Breast cancer is a common disease in radiation oncology. We evaluated the radiation dose received by breast cancer patients, an often-neglected concern. Materials and Methods: The total effective radiation dose in 101 breast cancer patients was calculated by summing the effective doses of individual diagnostic imaging tests from the first hospital visit to the initiation of radiothe...

Redox-reactions are playing a significant role in regulation of homeostasis of organism. Disorder of the redox-status is related with the onset and/or propagation of oxidative diseases such as lifestyle-related diseases, including cancers and cardiac diseases, etc. In vivo imaging of redox-status is thereby important in the analysis of mechanisms of oxidative diseases and developments of new me...
