Radioisotope scanning of the lungs [PDF]
Lung scanning with macroaggregated albumin 131I was carried out in 128 patients. The technique appears to be without hazard. It is particularly useful in the detection of pulmonary embolism, but the pattern is non-specific and changes occur in other cardio-respiratory diseases.

Decontamination of radioisotopes [PDF]
Contaminations with radioactive material may occur in several situations related to medicine, industry or research. Seriousness of the incident depends mainly on the radioactive element involved; usually there are no major acute health effects, but in the long term can cause malignancies, leukemia, genetic defects and teratogenic anomalies.

Stem Cell Imaging: Tools to Improve Cell Delivery and Viability. [PDF]
Stem cell therapy (SCT) has shown very promising preclinical results in a variety of regenerative medicine applications. Nevertheless, the complete utility of this technology remains unrealized. Imaging is a potent tool used in multiple stages of SCT and

Cosmogenic-neutron activation of TeO2 and implications for neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments [PDF]
Flux-averaged cross sections for cosmogenic-neutron activation of natural tellurium were measured using a neutron beam containing neutrons of kinetic energies up to $\sim$800 MeV, and having an energy spectrum similar to that of cosmic-ray neutrons at ...

Radioisotopes in Hematology. [PDF]
The earliest therapeutic use of artificially produced radioactive isotopes in medicine was in the field of hematology, and dates back to the Summer of 1936 when radiophosphorus was administered to a patient with chronic lymphatic leukemia. This was twenty years ago when radioisotopes first became available for medical investigations from the 37-inch ...

Excitation functions of proton induced nuclear reactions on natW up to 40 MeV [PDF]
Excitation functions for the production of the 181,182m,182g,183,184g,186Re and 183,184Ta radionuclides from proton bombardment on natural tungsten were measured using the stacked-foil activation technique for the proton energies up to 40 MeV. A new data

The invisible businessman: Nuclear physics, patenting practices,and trading activities in the 1930s [PDF]
In the 1930s the production of patents for the protection of intellectual rights became central to the research activities of Enrico Fermi and his group, consistently with a research policy emerging within the Italian Fascist Regime.

Radioisotopes and Nanomedicine [PDF]
Nanomedicine, the medical application of nanotechnology, is poised to make a major impact on the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. It is a relatively new branch of science that involves harnessing the unique properties of particles that are nanometers in scale (nanoparticles) for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Nanoparticles (NPs)
