[ 1 ] - Evaluation of the Possible Utilization of 68Ga-DOTATOC in Diagnosis of Adenocarcinoma Breast Cancer

Objective(s): Studies have indicated advantageous properties of [DOTA-DPhe1 , Tyr3 ] octreotide (DOTATOC) in tumor models and labeling with gallium. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer mortality in women, and most of these cancers are often an adenocarcinoma. Due to the importance of target to non-target ratios in the efficacy of diagnosis, the pharmacokinetic of 68Ga-DOTATOC in...

[ 2 ] - Preparation and Quality Control of 68Ga-Citrate for PET Applications

  Objective(s): In nuclear medicine studies, gallium-68 (68Ga) citrate has been recently known as a suitable infection agent in positron emission tomography (PET). In this study, by applying an in-house produced 68Ge/68Ga generator, a simple technique for the synthesis and quality control of 68Ga-citrate was introduced; followed by preliminary animal studies. Methods: 68GaCl3 eluted from the ge...

[ 3 ] - Production, biodistribution assessment and dosimetric evaluation of 177Lu-TTHMP as a bone pain palliation agent

Objective(s): Recently, bone-avid radiopharmaceuticals have been shown to have potential benefits for the treatment of widespread bone metastases. Although 177Lutriethylene tetramine hexa methylene phosphonic acid (abbreviated as 177Lu- TTHMP), as an agent for bone pain palliation, has been evaluated in previous studies, there are large discrepancies between the obtained results. In this study,...

[ 4 ] - شبیه‌سازی تابع پاسخ سوسوزن‌های آلی به تابش گاما و نوترون با استفاده از کدهای مونت کارلوی FLUKA،MCNPX و SCINFUL

In organic scintillators, the energy distribution of gamma rays and neutrons is indirectly measured by the pulse height distribution of light output produced through gamma ray and neutron reactions in the detectors. Accurate estimate of the interaction of gamma and neutrons in the detector and produce charged secondary particles and subsequent scintillation light produced in the calculation of ...
