Molecular breast imaging [PDF]
Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2009 Molecular breast imaging (MBI) is a new nuclear medicine technique that utilizes small semiconductor-based gamma-cameras in a mammographic configuration to provide high-resolution functional images of the breast. Current studies with MBI have used Tc-99m sestamibi, which is an approved agent for breast imaging.

Molecular imaging and immunotherapy [PDF]
The International Journal of Biological Markers, 2020 The utility of positron emission tomography (PET) for the evaluation of response to immunotherapy has been considered a hot topic, particularly in the last 2 to 3 years. Different experiences have been collected in clinical practice, with 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT), particularly in patients affected by lymphoma, malignant

Endocarditis and molecular imaging [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Cardiology, 2014 Clinically managing acute endocarditis, an infection of the heart valves with a mortality rate of up to 47%, remains highly challenging and frequently unsuccessful (1, 2). The most common pathogen behind acute endocarditis is Staphylococcus aureus, followed by Streptococcus species (2, 3). Unmet clinical needs in treating acute endocarditis include: (i)
