We describe a case of pulmonary granulomatosis in a user who habitually injected methylphenidate (Ritalin) intravenously; symptomatic and objective improvement occurred with corticosteroid therapy. A scan of the lungs using radioactive 67gallium showed an increased concentration of 67gallium throughout both lungs. There was a reduction in abnormal accumulation of 67gallium, improvement in the a...

67gallium-bleomycin complex (67ga-blm) was prepared using thakour method. radio-thin-layer-chromatography of prepared complex showed a2 and b2 radiopeaks with rf at 0.7 and 0.4 respectively with a purity of above % 95. tissue uptake of 67ga-blm and 67gacl3 in twelve tissues including tumor, blood, liver, lung, spleen, muscle, skin, heart, kidney, colon, colon content ,bladder and the total body...

Primary adrenal leiomyosarcoma is an extremely rare tumor. Here, we report the case of a primary adrenal leiomyosarcoma in an 81-year-old woman. Computed tomography showed a right adrenal tumor (7 cm). There were no abnormal findings on physical examination and her serum adrenal hormone levels were normal. However, 67Gallium scintigraphy showed gallium accumulation at the site of a right adrena...

A portable body-monitoring system developed by the board uses two detectors, one for whole-body measurements and one for thyroid measurements. It can detect most commonly used gamma-ray emitting nuclides down to levels below those of interest for radiological protection purposes. The system has been used at 11 establishments including hospitals, universities, and research laboratories. Measurem...
