muslims nowadays need to be present on the international stage. this involves living together with non-muslims, especially the people of the book. this sort of life and interaction has different political, cultural, economic, and military aspects. the belief that non-muslims are impure (najes) causes hardship to the muslims; and is incompatible with human dignity, which is acknowledged by the q...

Introduction Gallium-67 (67Ga) has been used as a radionuclide for imaging a variety of solid tumors since 1969. Since then use of various gallium-based radiotracers has been reported. Recently, 67Ga-labeled acetylacetate bis(thiosemicarbazones) (67Ga-AATS) complex with significant tumor accumulation and fast blood clearance has been employed. Materials and Methods In this study, the absorbed d...

Brix and apparent purity are well known to be biased estimators of dry solids and true purity respectively, particularly on lower purity streams. Correlations which estimate dry solids from brix and apparent purity and estimate true purity also from brix and apparent purity are presented. The suitability of these correlations is evaluated in the light of available historical data.

Introduction Over the last 5 decades, radionuclide generators have attracted substantial attention, indeed close scrutiny of the nuclear medicine community owing to their ability to provide short-lived radioisotopes without the need for on-site nuclear reactor or cyclotron facilities for preparation of a wide variety of diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals [1]. The radionuclide gener...

177Lu has sprung as a promising radionuclide for targeted therapy. The low soft tissue penetration of its β- emission results in very efficient energy deposition in small-size tumours. Because of this, 177Lu is used in the treatment of neuroendocrine tumours and is also clinically approved for prostate cancer therapy. In this work, we report a separation method that achieves the challenging sep...

The American College of Radiology has developed appropriateness criteria for a number of clinical conditions and procedures. Criteria are available on imaging tests used in the evaluation of acute chest pain--suspected myocardial ischemia. Imaging tests for a suspected cardiac etiology include transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography, radionuclide perfusion imaging, radi...
