Amyloid plaque imaging from IMPY/SPECT to AV-45/PET.
The formation and deposition of β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques are the earliest pathological changes in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Molecular imaging of Aβ plaques could serve as a surrogate marker in early diagnosis and neuropathogenesis studies of AD. Several radionuclide labeled ligands have recently been developed for noninvasive visualization of Aβ plaques in the brains of AD patients using single p...
متن کاملThe comparison of serial SPECT-CT imaging to estimate absorbed dose to the organ at risk from peptide receptor radionuclide therapy dosimetry
Introduction: In Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT), the administration of radionuclide such as Lu-177 label with a pharmaceutical agent useful to destroy the lesion. The amount of Lu-177 radioactivity administered to the patients is still not standardize and generally not more than 7.4 GBq per session due to the patient’s safety issues. The first cycle of Lu-177 is a...
متن کاملSPECT and PET Imaging of Meningiomas
Meningiomas arise from the meningothelial cells of the arachnoid membranes. They are the most common primary intracranial neoplasms and represent about 20% of all intracranial tumors. They are usually diagnosed after the third decade of life and they are more frequent in women than in men. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, meningiomas can be classified into grade I meni...
متن کاملBasics of SPECT , PET and PET / CT Imaging
In the diagnostic imaging two kinds of modalities can be differentiated. On one side the anatomical imaging, providing a very accurate visualization of the intern structures of the human body; and the functional imaging, which is aimed to quantify the physiological processes taking place inside the human body without influencing them. One of the most widely spread practices used for this purpos...
متن کاملHybrid PET/CT and SPECT/CT Imaging
1.1 Definition of nuclear medicine, molecular imaging and hybrid imaging Nuclear Medicine uses radioactive probes commonly referred to as tracers for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Monitoring the metabolic fate of nanomolar amounts of radiolabeled substances by tracking their photon emission with SPECT (Single Photon Emission Tomography) and PET (Positron Emission Tomography) was the ...
