various radiometal complexes have been developed for tumor imaging, especially ga-68 tracer. in the present study, the development of a radiogallium bis-thiosemicarbazone complex has been reported. [67ga] acetylacetonate bis(thiosemicarbazone) complex ([67ga] aats) was prepared starting [67ga]gallium acetate and freshly prepared acetylacetonate bis (thiosemicarbazone) (aats) in 30 min at 90°c. ...

Rats were injected intravenously with various particulate materials with and without the addition of various stabilizing agents. One hour after the injection of the blockading colloid, a tracer dose of similar or different colloidal material was injected. A half-time clearance rate of the tracer dose greater than 4 minutes was taken as evidence of blockade of the RES. Blockade of the tracer dos...

Vehicular ad hoc networks are an emerging technology with an extensive capability in various applications including vehicles safety, traffic management and intelligent transportation systems. Considering the high mobility of vehicles and their inhomogeneous distributions, designing an efficient routing protocol seems necessary. Given the fact that a road is crowded at some sections and is not c...

Introduction: Optimized production and quality control of 68Ga-DOTATATE as an efficient and preferable PET radiotracer for somatostatin receptor imaging in neuroendocrine tumors is of great interest. In this study effort has been made to present a fast, efficient, cost-effective and facile protocol for 68Ga-DOTATATE productions for clinical trials. Methods:68Ga...

One of the most important requirements for industrial pipelines is the leakage detection. In this paper, detection of leak and determination of its amount using radioactive tracer injection method has been simulated by Monte Carlo MCNP code. The detector array included two NaI (Tl) detectors which were located before and after the considered position, measure emitted gamma from radioactive trac...

Tracer-tracer relations have been used for a long time to separate physico-chemical change from change caused by transport processes. In particular, for more than a decade, ozone-tracer relations have been used to quantify chemical ozone loss in the polar vortex. The application of ozone-tracer relations for quantifying ozone loss relies on two hypotheses: that a compact ozone-tracer relation i...

[1] Investigations of solute transport in fractured rock aquifers often rely on tracer test data acquired at a limited number of observation points. Such data do not, by themselves, allow detailed assessments of the spreading of the injected tracer plume. To better understand the transport behavior in a granitic aquifer, we combine tracer test data with single-hole ground-penetrating radar (GPR...

Multi-tracer positron emission tomography (PET) can image two or more tracers in a single scan, characterizing multiple aspects of biological functions to provide new insights into many diseases. The technique uses dynamic imaging, resulting in time-activity curves that contain contributions from each tracer present. The process of separating and recovering separate images and/or imaging measur...
