Introduction: Dual-modality contrast agents, such as radiolabeled nanoparticles, are promising candidates for a number of diagnostic applications, namely SPECT imaging with MR imaging. So the aim of study was evaluating potential of Chitosan-Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles(SPION) labeled with 99mTc as new Dual-modality probes for liver Imaging. Materials and Methods:</st...

Introduction Over the last 5 decades, radionuclide generators have attracted substantial attention, indeed close scrutiny of the nuclear medicine community owing to their ability to provide short-lived radioisotopes without the need for on-site nuclear reactor or cyclotron facilities for preparation of a wide variety of diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals [1]. The radionuclide gener...

Nuclear medicine has an important role in the care of newborns and children less than 1 y old. Patients in this age group present with a spectrum of diseases different from those of older children or adults. These patients can benefit from the full range of nuclear medicine studies. In these young children, nuclear medicine studies are more likely to be used to evaluate a wide range of congenit...
