Correlation of clinical outcomes with bremsstrahlung and Y-90 PET/CT imaging findings following Y-90 radiosynoviorthesis: a prospective study
BACKGROUND It is unclear how to predict which patients will respond to Y-90 radiosynoviorthesis. The aim of this study is to correlate clinical outcomes following Y-90 radiosynoviorthesis with bremsstrahlung and Y-90 PET/CT imaging findings. METHODS Fifty-one joints underwent bremsstrahlung planar and Y-90 PET/CT imaging following Y-90 radiosynoviorthesis. The Y-90 distribution pattern on bre...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Dose Calculation of 90 Sr/ 90 Y Source in Water Phantom
Introduction: 90 Sr/ 90 Y source has been used for the intravascular brachytherapy to prevent coronary restenosis in the patients who have undergone angioplasty. The aim of this research is to determine the dose distribution of 90 Sr/ 90 Y source in a water phantom. Materials and Methods: In the present work, MCNP code has been applied to calculate the dose distri...
متن کاملApplication of the thermoluminescent technique for calibration and dosimetry of 90 Sr + 90 Y applicators
Dermatological and ophthalmic applicators are used in brachytherapy for the treatment of superficial lesions of skin and eyes. The calibration of these applicators should be realized periodically, according to quality control programs and international recommendations about dosimetry and calibration of brachytherapy sources. Thin thermoluminescent dosimeters of CaSO4:Dy were utilized in this wo...
متن کاملComparison of TOF-PET and Bremsstrahlung SPECT images of Yttrium-90: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Objective(s): Yttrium-90 (90Y) is a beta particle nuclide used in targeted radionuclide therapy which is available to both single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and time-of-flight (TOF) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. The purpose of this study was to assess the image quality of PET and Bremsstrahlung SPECT by simulating PET and SPECT images of 90Y using Monte Carlo simu...
متن کاملExtrahepatic visualization in the distribution of falciform artery in posttreatment Bremsstrahlung images after radioembolization with (90)Y microspheres.
We report the case of a 39-year-old female with metastatic colorectal cancer. Pretreatment SPECT/CT imaging revealed extrahepatic tracer accumulation along the falciform artery distribution. Prior to the administration of (90)Y microspheres, hepatic arterial anatomy was evaluated angiographically. It was not possible to identify the hepatic falciform artery so that no coil-embolization was perf...
