We used technetium-99m antimony colloid to visualize the bone marrow of the head of the femur within twenty-four hours after interruption of the blood supply by subcapital osteotomy and section of the ligamentum teres in thirteen rabbits and within twenty-four hours after a subcapital fracture in thirty patients. Of the rabbits, all showed loss of marrow radioactivity over the affected femoral ...

BACKGROUND Dual-tracer-guided sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy may provide a promising diagnostic tool to assess accurately the status of lymph node metastasis in the surgical operation and assure the oncologic safety of the function or stomach preserving surgery. The diagnostic performance of this technology in recent studies varied. Thus, we conducted this meta-analysis. METHODS This system...

A new chemical deposition method has been developed to prepare photoconducting n-Sb2S3 thin polycrystalline films. The solution composition of the deposition bath was 0.025M potassium antimonyl tartarate, 0.4M triethanolamine, 0.025M thioacetamide, and 5 • 10-7M silicotungstic acid (STA), respectively. The as-deposited and the annealed films were characterized through x-ray diffraction, neutron...

The antimony-iron sulfide system in general does not produce alloys below 540 °C from traditional solid-state methods. However, single source precursors have been known to unexpected products that arise kinetically trapped polymorphs. In this paper, we test the efficacy of approach toward Fe-Sb-S system. Antimony and iron diethyldithiocarbamate complexes form Sb[S2CN(Et2)]3 (1) Fe[S2CN(Et2)]3 (...

A lthough cosmetics, from Greek kósmesis (adorn), now refers to external products used to beautify the skin, hair, eye, or other parts of the body, cosmesis was not the first objective of primitive eye painting. The first aim of body painting in primitive cultures may have been to protect people from evil spirits, which could enter their body through vulnerable openings, such as the eyes. The s...

Abstract Thermal decomposition of tris(O-ethyldithiocarbonato)-antimony(III) ( 1 ), a precursor for Sb 2 S 3 thin films synthesized from an acidified aqueous solution SbCl and KS COCH CH , was monitored by simultaneous thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis evolved gas via mass spectroscopy (TG/DTA-EGA-MS) measurements in dynamic Ar, synthetic air atmospheres. identified Fourier transf...

OBJECTIVES Radionuclide synovectomy is a reliable therapy in patients with chronic synovitis. However, radiation doses delivered to non-target organ systems due to leakage of radioactive material from the articular cavity are an important disadvantage of this procedure. In this study we compared extraarticular leakage values of the 3 commonly used radiopharmaceuticals; 90Y-citrate, 90Y-silicate...
