Position sensitive radiation detector [PDF]
An apparatus and method are disclosed for detecting and locating the origin of a gamma ray in a medical diagnostic imaging system. At least one primary fiber, which is a scintillating optical fiber, is positioned to receive radiation from a gamma ray ...

RADIONUCLIDE QUANTITATIVE IN ASSESSMENT OF MYOCARDIAL BLOOD FLOW
The aim of this study were to develop a radionuclide method for quantitative estimation of the myocardial blood flow (MBF). Twelve patients with suspected coronary artery disease underwent both Tc-99mmethoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) imaging and coronary ...

Multi-modal 3D imaging of radionuclides using multiple hybrid Compton cameras
For radiological diagnosis and radionuclide therapy, X-ray and gamma-ray imaging technologies are essential. Single-photon emission tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) play essential roles in radiological diagnosis, such as the ...

VLSI Implementation of TDC Architectures Used in PET Imaging Systems [PDF]
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging method based on the measurement of concentrations of positron-emitting radionuclides in a living body. In the PET imaging system, glucose is labeled with a positron-emitting radionuclide and injected intravenously.

Appraising the visibility, relevance and impacts of clinical pharmacology
Aims Clinical pharmacology (CP) used to be a strong medical and scientific field, but during the last three decades it seems to have lost some of its appeal. We reviewed the visibility, relevance and impact of CP and clinical pharmacologists across the globe and suggest ways to strengthen the discipline to address future pharmacotherapeutic challenges.

Evaluation of imaging protocol for ECT based on CS image reconstruction algorithm
SPECT (Single-photon Emission Computerized Tomography) and PET (Positron Emission Tomography) are essential medical imaging tools, for which the sampling angle number, scan time should be chosen carefully to compromise between image quality and the ...

Threshold subtraction in radionuclide imaging
We note with interest the paper by Chandler and Anderson (1987) on “A method for thresholding subtacted images in radiolabelled-antibody imaging”. The application of a 95% prediction interval to remove the non-significant counts would indeed increase the confidence of tumour localization and lends statistical support to our previously published work ...

The insertion of a fluorescent coumarin unit by using a lysine‐based linker on deferoxamine leads to a chelating agent (DFOKC), whose Cu(II) and Zr(IV) complexes can be used for both optical imaging and positron emission tomography. DFOKC shows increased binding ability for Cu(II) and Zr(II) and improved tumor cell internalization via pinocytosis ...

The expanding role of nuclear medicine in therapeutic strategies [PDF]
The concept of carrying a cytotoxic radionuclide directly to cancerous cells is an attractive alternative to conventional forms of radiation treatment.
