Current role of radionuclide imaging in differentiated thyroid cancer
Nuclear medicine plays an integral role in the management of differentiated thyroid cancer. This editorial aims to provide a summary of the current role of radionuclide imaging, including whole body iodine scan and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET), in the diagnostic work-up and follow-up of patients with thyroid cancer.
متن کاملCurrent status of renal clearances.
Determination of renal clearances continues to have value in clinical situations. Current knowledge of renal function permits expansion of the clearance concept to include non-excretory mechanisms by which kidneys clear substances from blood. Measurement of clearances is useful in quantifying renal function, progression of renal disease, response to therapy, determining the amount of dialysis r...
متن کاملTargeted Radionuclide Therapy: Current status and potentials for future improvements
Purpose: Adequate dosimetry is mandatory for effective and safe peptide receptorradionuclide therapy. The radiation-dose to the bone marrow can be calculated from theresidence time of the radiopeptide in the blood, but it might be underestimated since stemcells express somatostatin-receptors. We verified the blood-method by comparing the resultswith bone marrow aspirations. Also...
متن کاملRelationship of Renal Cortical Echogenicity in Renal Ultrasonography with Course of Disease in Children with Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome
Background It is important to find a predictor for the course of Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome for better planning of treatment. Renal cortical echogenicity in ultrasonography has been postulated as a marker for the course of renal disease. The present study aimed at evaluating the relationship between renal cortical echogenicity and the course...
