[ 1 ] - Development of an 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine Myocardial Three-Dimensional Quantification Method for the Diagnosis of Lewy Body Disease

Objective(s): We recently developed a new uptake index method for 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) heart uptake measurements by using planar images (radioisotope angiography and planar image) for the diagnosis of Lewy body disease (LBD), including Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies(DLB). However, the diagnostic accuracy of the uptake index was approximately equal to ...

[ 2 ] - A simple non-invasive I-123-IMP autoradiography method developed by modifying the simple non-invasive I-123-IMP microsphere method

Objective: We developed a simple non-invasive I-123-N-isopropyl-p-iodoamphetamine (123I-IMP) quantification method by analyzing chest RI-angiography and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images based on the microsphere model (SIMS method). Theoretically, the SIMS method could be changed to the simple non-invasive ARG (SIARG) method by modifying the integrated washout ratio (WR)...
