Introduction: Involvement of the skeleton can cause an excruciating pain in two-thirds of terminal patients with a history of malignancy. Due to several limitations of other therapies, such as analgesics, bisphosphonates, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy and external beam radiotherapy; bone-seeking radiopharmaceuticals have an important role in palliation of pain from bone metastases. Although th...
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,...
BACKGROUND The high incidence of skeletal metastases in cancer patients warrants careful detection with imaging and follow-up. Efforts are needed to manage pain associated with skeletal metastases as part of overall patient management. METHODS This article reviews the current methods of diagnostic imaging in the evaluation of skeletal metastases and image-guided treatment of bone metastases f...

Introduction One of the important applications of nuclear physics in medicine is the use of radioactive elements as radiopharmaceuticals. Metastatic bone disease is the most common form of malignant bone tumors. Samarium-153-ethylene diamine tetramethylene phosphonate (153Sm-EDTMP) as a radiopharmaceutical is used for pain palliation. This radiopharmaceutical usually emits beta particles, which...
PURPOSE We evaluated the safety and effectiveness of the Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) with the ExAblate Conformal Bone System for the palliation of painful bone metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our Institutional Review Board approved this study, and all patients gave informed consent prior to enrollment. A total of six painful metastatic bone lesions in five patients...
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of metastatic bone pain palliation and medullar toxicity associated with samarium-153-EDTMP treatment. METHODS Seventy-three patients with metastatic bone pain having previously undergone therapy with samarium-153-EDTMP (1 mCi/kg) were retrospectively evaluated. Routine follow-up included pain evaluation and blood counts for 2 months af...
