Cellular dosimetry of beta emitting radionuclides-antibody conjugates for radioimmunotherapy
Introduction: The choice of optimal radionuclides for radioimmunotherapy depends on several factors, especially the radionuclide and antibody. The dosimetric characteristics of a non-internalizing and an internalizing monoclonal antibody (MAb) labeled with beta emitting radionuclides were investigated. Methods: Using Geant4-DNA Monte Carlo simulation, we ...
متن کاملGamma Emitting Radionuclides in Soil
The reference values of the massic activities of each nuclide and their associated standard uncertainties were established based on the certified activity value of the standard solutions used for spiking the soil, taking into account the successive dilution steps, the mass of spiking solutions and the dry mass of the soil being spiked. Radionuclide Certified Value Bq kg Standard combined uncert...
متن کاملInternalized Α-particle Emitting Radionuclides
Radon is a natural radioactive gas produced by the decay of uranium and thorium, which are present in all rocks and soils in small quantities. There are several isotopes of radon, the most important of which are 222Rn (produced from 238U) and 220Rn (produced from thorium). 220Rn is also known as thoron because of its parent radionuclide. In the United Kingdom, it has been shown that 220Rn deliv...

متن کاملIntravascular brachytherapy for peripheral vascular disease
SCIENTIFIC BACKGROUND Percutaneous transluminal angioplasties (PTA) through balloon dilatation with or without stenting, i.e. vessel expansion through balloons with or without of implantation of small tubes, called stents, are used in the treatment of peripheral artery occlusive disease (PAOD). The intravascular vessel irradiation, called intravascular brachytherapy, promises a reduction in the...
