Abstract—[Tris (1,10-phenanthroline) lanthanum(III)] trithiocyanate is a new compound that has shown high ability for stopping the synthesis of DNA and also acting as a photosensitizer. Nowadays, the radiation dose assessment resource (RADAR) method is known as the most common method for absorbed dose calculation. 177Lu was produced by (n, gamma) reaction in a research reactor. Lu-PL3 was prepa...

Introduction: [Cu]diacetyl-bis(N-methylthiosemicarbazone) ([Cu]ATSM) is a well-established hypoxia imaging tracer with reproducible production and significant specifity. In this work the high yield production and quality control as well as imaging studies in healthy rabbits is reported. Methods: Copper-64 produced via the Zn(p,n)Cu nuclear reaction (30 MeV protons at 180 μA) was used for the p...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The prerequisite of radioimmunotherapy is stable binding of a radionuclide to monoclonal antibodies, which are specific to the tumour-associated antigen. Most B-cell lymphomas express CD20 antigen on the surface of the tumour cells, making it a suitable target for therapeutic radioactive monoclonal antibodies. In the present study, the immunoconjugate of biosimilar Ritux...

  Intoduction: Therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals are radiolabeled molecules to deliver sufficient doses of ionizing radiation to specific disease sites such as bone metastases, brain and liver tumors and bone marrows malignancies including multiple myeloma. Among some therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, 166Ho-1,4,7,10 -tetraazacyclo dodecane-1,4,7,10 tetraethy...

AIMS Different methods exist for measuring left ventricular function echocardiographically; each may be error prone due to the abnormal pattern of ventricular activation during pacing. METHODS AND RESULTS Echocardiography was undertaken on 307 patients with permanent pacemakers; a subset of 57 underwent radionuclide ventriculography. Intrinsic and paced beats were analysed for left ventricula...

introduction artificial and natural radionuclides are found in diverse environmental compartments, such as water, soil, rocks, vegetables, animals, and human body tissues. as such, humans and environments are at constant exposure of these radiation types. in this research investigated specific activities of radionuclide and dose assessment of some species of mushrooms. materials and methods in ...

statement of problem: condylar hyperplasia of the mandible is a self limiting abnormality which can cause facial asymmetry, temporomandibular joint (tmj) dysfunction and esthetic problems. treatment planning is based on the results of isotope scanning, clinical findings and patient age. single photon emission tomography (spect) is considered to be a sensitive method in the calculation of condyl...

Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common autoimmune disease, leading to the destruction of the joints and causing pain, disability, and immobility in the patients. Radiosynovectomy (RSV) has been applied as an effective treatment for the patients with resistant synovitis after failure of long-term pharmacotherapy and intra-articular steroid injection for more than 50 years. Se...
