Histological changes produced by a single large injection of radioactive phosphorus (P32) in albino rats and in C3H mice.
Numerous reports have appeared, describing the therapeutic use of radioactive phosphorus (P32) in polycythemia vera (5-7, 10, 11, 15, 19, 22, 23), leukemia (4, 5, 7, 9, 13-16, 19, 22-25), and other conditions (10, 12, 22). However, there have been few systematic investigations of the effects of radiophosphorus on the histological appearance of organs and tissues (1, 8, 21). An attempt was there...
متن کاملTreatment of menorrhagia.
Menorrhagia is defined as excessive uterine bleeding occurring at regular intervals or prolonged uterine bleeding lasting more than seven days. The classic definition of menorrhagia (i.e., greater than 80 mL of blood loss per cycle) is rarely used clinically. Women describe the loss or reduction of daily activities as more important than the actual volume of bleeding. Routine testing of all wom...
متن کاملUptake of Radioactive Phosphorus in Experimental Tumors
taken up by neoplastic ocular tissue to a much greater extent than by the corresponding normal ocular tissue during a period extending from 10 minutes to several days following the intravenous injection of P32. It was postulated (6) that the increased radioactivity found in the tumor during the first 15 minutes was due to the high blood level of P32and the high vascularity of the tumor. However...
متن کاملRadioactive phosphorus uptake testing of choroidal lesions
32p testing for suspected ocular malignancy has been performed during the past three years at the Mayo Clinic in a manner similar to that described by Shields, Sarin, Federman, Mensheha-Manhart, and Carmichael (I 974). Until recently our technique differed, however, in that we administered the 32p orally rather than intravenously. A dose of 750 ,tCi of 32p was given to the patient orally on an ...
متن کاملTransfusion of Leukocytes Labeled with Radioactive Phosphorus.
Mechanisms involved in the failure to raise the white blood cell count by transfusion remain unknown. Previous studies (1) on the effect of transfusion of concentrated suspensions of leukocytes obtained from the peritoneal cavity of rabbits have confirmed the clinical observation that the white blood cell count cannot be effectively increased by transfusion. When concentrated suspensions of leu...
