Posttherapy radiation safety considerations in radiomicrosphere treatment with 90Y-microspheres.
Radiomicrosphere treatment involves the intrahepatic arterial administration of (90)Y-resin or (90)Y-glass microspheres. The microspheres are biocompatible, but not biodegradable, and little to no (90)Y leaches from the microspheres. Without any bioelimination, the beta-dose delivery is generally confined to the liver. Although U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission requirements permit patients tre...
متن کاملBreast Radiation Protection in Coronary Angiography
Introduction: Coronary angiography (CA) is an interventional diagnostic procedure to assess cardiovascular disease. CA is performed using dedicated fluoroscopic systems equipped with either flat detector or image intensifier. There is an increase in the number of CA annually. Reducing the radiation exposure in the CA is essential, especially due to high fluoroscopy time. In ord...
متن کاملRadiation Protection with Nanoparticles
At the onset of radiation exposure, free radicals are formed through ionizing reactions that are then capable of destroying normal tissues. While cells release a level of protective molecules, such as glutathione and metallothionine, they are not capable of blocking all damage, thus resulting in the death of normal tissues and therefore, we must continue to develop strategies to protect normal ...

متن کاملPatient dosimetry for 90Y selective internal radiation treatment based on 90Y PET imaging
Until recently, the radiation dose to patients undergoing the 90Y selective internal radiation treatment (SIRT) procedure is determined by applying the partition model to 99mTc MAA pretreatment scan. There can be great uncertainty in radiation dose calculated from this approach and we presented a method to compute the 3D dose distributions resulting from 90Y SIRT based on 90Y positron emission ...
