Detection and quantification of Holmium-166 loaded microspheres in patients with liver metastases: initial experience within the framework of a phase I study
Introduction: Internal radiation therapy using radioactive Holmium-166 loaded microspheres (HoMS) has shown to be a promising technique for treatment of liver metastases [1]. Unlike Yttrium-90 microspheres, which lack imaging capabilities, HoMS can be detected by Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) using the Holmium-166 photopeak and by MRI using the paramagnetic properties of Ho...
متن کاملSelective depiction of holmium-loaded microspheres (HoMS) using susceptibility gradient mapping (SGM): initial experience in animal models
IntroductionInternal radiation therapy with radioactive holmium-loaded microspheres (HoMS) is a promising treatment option for both unresectable liver metastases and hepatocellular carcinoma. In previous animal studies on internal radiation therapy of hepatic malignancies, MR imaging was shown to be the modality of choice for guiding the administration, planning and follow-up. In particular, T2...
متن کاملThe influence of Holmium-166 loaded microspheres on ADC measurements using DWI
Introduction: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is a powerful tool for the evaluation of radiation therapy since the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) provides information about tumor viability [1]. Problems may arise, however, when DWI is used in the presence of paramagnetic particles, e.g., to evaluate the effect of internal radiation therapy of liver tumors using Holmium-166 loaded microsp...
متن کاملMultifunctional GQDs-Coated Fe/Bi Nanohybrids for CT/MR Dual Imaging and in vitro Photothermal Therapy
Introduction: The multipurpose nanocomposites have gained growing biomedical attention as promising nanotheranostics to improve The effectiveness of cancer treatment, which concurrently combine advantages of the therapeutic and diagnostic techniques into one nanosystem. The “all-in on” probes not only help to ablate cancerous tumors, but also allow to optimize and monitoring of...
متن کاملIntratumoral Administration of Holmium-166 Acetylacetonate Microspheres: Antitumor Efficacy and Feasibility of Multimodality Imaging in Renal Cancer
PURPOSE The increasing incidence of small renal tumors in an aging population with comorbidities has stimulated the development of minimally invasive treatments. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and demonstrate feasibility of multimodality imaging of intratumoral administration of holmium-166 microspheres ((166)HoAcAcMS). This new technique locally ablates renal tumors through high-energ...
