abstract the plants which can be used to clean up the soil of heavy metals contamination are named phytoremedation. phytoremediation has received increasing attention because of its low environmental impact and cost-effectiveness. but, it is slowly process and needs long time. in such reson, chelating agents have been proposed to improve the efficiency of phytoextraction by increasing solubilit...

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 ...

objective(s): iodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine (123i-mibg) myocardial scintigraphy has been used to evaluate cardiac sympathetic denervation in lewy body disease (lbd), including parkinson’s disease (pd) and dementia with lewy bodies (dlb). the heart-tomediastinum ratio (h/m) in pd and dlb is significantly lower than that in parkinson’s plus syndromes and alzheimer’s disease. although this ra...

I compared values for the free thyroxin index derived from data obtained by four triiodothyronine-uptake kits for 93 euthyroid subjects with normal or altered thyroxin-binding globulin binding capacity. In addition, I devised a mathematical model of an "ideal" free thyroxin index. Only one uptake kit satisfactorily normalized values for the free thyroxin index in the increased thyroglobulin gro...

aim: thyroid scan with sestamibi is used for evaluation of thyroid nodules with the aim of increasing specificity before surgery. in this study we evaluated the role of sestamibi thyroid scan in candidates for thyroid surgery. methods and patients: during two years, 37 patients were studied with solitary thyroid nodules, referred for thyroid surgery due to malignant or suspicious fnab results (...
