Nanotargeted Radionuclides for Cancer Nuclear Imaging and Internal Radiotherapy
Current progress in nanomedicine has exploited the possibility of designing tumor-targeted nanocarriers being able to deliver radionuclide payloads in a site or molecular selective manner to improve the efficacy and safety of cancer imaging and therapy. Radionuclides of auger electron-, alpha-, beta-, and gamma-radiation emitters have been surface-bioconjugated or after-loaded in nanoparticles ...
متن کاملCancer nanotargeted radiopharmaceuticals for tumor imaging and therapy.
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world. Radiolabeled nanocarriers or nanoparticles can be designed and used for cancer diagnostic and therapeutic purposes when tagged with appropriate radionuclides. Current progress in nanotechnology and nanomedicine has exploited the possibility of designing tumor-targeted nanocarriers able to deliver radionuclide payloads in a selective mann...
متن کاملRisk of Lung Cancer Mortality in Nuclear Workers from Internal Exposure to Alpha Particle-emitting Radionuclides
BACKGROUND Carcinogenic risks of internal exposures to alpha-emitters (except radon) are poorly understood. Since exposure to alpha particles-particularly through inhalation-occurs in a range of settings, understanding consequent risks is a public health priority. We aimed to quantify dose-response relationships between lung dose from alpha-emitters and lung cancer in nuclear workers. METHODS...
متن کاملCervical Cancer - Imaging and Radiotherapy
Cervical cancer is the second most common malignancy in Serbia, usually detected in a locally advanced disease. Incidence and mortality rates of this cancer have declined in Western countries due to introduction of screening programs, which detect tumor in the stage of a pre-invasive disease. Imaging plays a significant role in the evaluation of tumor size, detection of parametrial invasion and...
متن کاملSeparation of nuclear isomers for cancer therapeutic radionuclides based on nuclear decay after-effects
177Lu has sprung as a promising radionuclide for targeted therapy. The low soft tissue penetration of its β- emission results in very efficient energy deposition in small-size tumours. Because of this, 177Lu is used in the treatment of neuroendocrine tumours and is also clinically approved for prostate cancer therapy. In this work, we report a separation method that achieves the challenging sep...
