Tantalum-178 is a short-lived radionuclide (Tm = 9.3 min.) and emits primarily 56to 64-keV characteristic x-rays. We have determined the imaging characteristics with this radionuclide and a large-field-of-view Anger camera. With a pinhole collimator, good spatial resolution is possible with Ta-178, although the image quality is superior with Tc-99m under comparable conditions. Spatial resolutio...

In many developing countries, including Nigeria, non-communicable diseases, such as endocrine disorders, are not given much attention because of the enormous burden posed by infectious diseases like malaria, tuberculosis, and other childhood killer diseases. addition, disorders thought to be uncommon due a lack specialized screening facilities trained healthcare professionals diagnose manage th...

Tantalum-178 is a short-liver radionuclide (T 1/2 = 9.3 min.) and emits primarily 56- to 64-keV characteristic x-rays. We have determined the imaging characteristics with this radionuclide and a large-field-of-view Anger camera. With a pinhole collimator, good spatial resolution is possible with Ta-178, although the image quality is superior with Tc-99m under comparable conditions. Spatial reso...

The successful development of safe and highly effective nanoprobes for targeted imaging and simultaneous therapy of in vivo gastric cancer is a great challenge. Herein we reported for the first time that anti-α-subunit of ATP synthase antibody, HAI-178 monoclonal antibody-conjugated fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles, was successfully used for targeted imaging and simultaneous therapy of in viv...

Introduction IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated fibro-inflammatory condition that affects multiple organ systems. Cardiovascular involvement has not been systematically studied, though case reports of putative with severe consequences for affected patients have emerged. We aim to investigate and define the novel cardiovascular phenotype IgG4-RD using magnetic resonanc...
