Comparison of strontium-89 solution sources in UK hospitals, 2003.
Concerns have been raised within the nuclear medicine field about the accuracy of measurements of 89Sr. The 85Sr impurity present in the 89Sr solution has a significant effect on the response of radionuclide calibrators used in hospitals. A comparison was conducted between the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and the UK hospital physics community. Only 58% of the results were within 5% of the...
متن کاملProduction, Quality Control and Pharmacokinetic Studies of 177Lu-EDTMP for Human Bone Pain Palliation Therapy Trials
Developing new bone pain palliation agents is a mandate in handling end-stage cancer patients around the world. Possibly, Lu-177 ethylenediaminetetramethylene phosphonic acid (177Lu-EDTMP) is a therapeutic agent which can be widely used in bone palliation therapy. In this study, 177Lu-EDTMP complex was prepared successfully using synthesized EDTMP ligand and 177LuCl3. Lu-177 chloride was obt...

متن کاملMeasurement of Field Distortion in Free-Air Ionization Chambers
A two dimensional allaJog of a free-air ionization chamber for the measurement of fi eld distortion was obtained by painting conducting lines on resistance paper to represent cross sections of the electrodes. Guard wires were simulated by driving record p layer needles into the paper . The volume of the chamber from which charge was collected was related to the resistance between two of the lin...
