Automated preparation of 188Re-labeled radiopharmaceuticals for endovascular radiation therapy.
We have developed an automated system for the preparation of highly concentrated 188Re-perrhenate, diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) and mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3). The three procedural steps include concentration of 188Re-perrhanerate, chelation and purification and sterilization. The steps are operated by a small micro-controller. The eluted 188Re-perrhenate of 15 GBq/18 ml from...
متن کاملNew methodologies for the preparation of carbon-11 labeled radiopharmaceuticals
PURPOSE This short review aims to cover the more recent and promising developments of carbon-11 (11C) labeling radiochemistry and its utility in the production of novel radiopharmaceuticals, with special emphasis on methods that have the greatest potential to be translated for clinical positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. METHODS A survey of the literature was undertaken to identify ar...
متن کاملRadiopharmaceuticals for nuclear cardiology: radiation dosimetry, uncertainties, and risk.
UNLABELLED The technical basis for the dose estimates for several radiopharmaceuticals used in nuclear cardiology is reviewed, and cases in which uncertainty has been encountered in the dosimetry of an agent are discussed. Also discussed is the issue of uncertainties in radiation dose estimates and how to compare the relative risks of studies. METHODS Radiation dose estimates (organ absorbed ...
متن کاملEpidemiology for the nuclear medicine technologist.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this article is to introduce the nuclear medicine technologist to the field of epidemiology. There are many applications of epidemiology in nuclear medicine, including research studies that deal with the causes of disease or ways to prevent disease from occurring and investigating the possible effects of ionizing radiation on occupational workers and the general public....
متن کاملMALDI-MSI: biomarker discovery for radiation exposures
Once outside of the Earth’s atmosphere astronauts are exposed to two main types of radiation, galactic cosmic rays (GCR) and solar energetic particles. GCRs consist of high energy, charged nuclei of elements ranging from H (hydrogen) to Fe (iron). High energy, charged nuclei of H (protons) are the major component of GCRs whereas approximately 1% of GCRs are larger ions with charges greater than...
