Optimising hypoxia PET imaging and its applications in guiding targeted radiation therapy for non‐small cell lung cancer: a scoping review

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 106-118, March 2025.
This review article reports that quantification of hypoxic volumes using PET in the pre‐radiation therapy setting is of prognostic value and indicative of treatment response in non‐small cell lung cancer. Abstract Introduction Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer‐related death. Definitive treatment includes chemotherapy and

Occupational burnout in nuclear medicine technologists working in Australia and New Zealand – results of a multi‐national survey

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 25-33, March 2025.
Occupational burnout is associated with negative feelings about the workplace and is often caused by a high workload and a non‐supportive workplace. It is associated with absenteeism, high turnover of staff and decreased patient care. More than half of the New Zealand participants and three quarters of the Australian participants had moderate levels of

Carbon, Nitrogen, and Corresponding Stable Isotope Signatures Reveal Channel Banks as Major Sediment Sources in a Tropical Agricultural Watershed

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncertainties about the applicability of δ13C and δ15N as tracers of sediment sources in tropical river basins highlight the need for more in‐depth investigations of these isotopes. This study therefore assessed the effectiveness of δ13C and δ15N signatures in discriminating sediment sources in an agricultural catchment in Northeast Brazil ...

Assessment of Soil Erosion Over Six Decades in a Long‐Term Experiment Using Fallout 137Cs and RUSLE: A South American Case Study

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major global concern affecting agricultural productivity and land sustainability. This study investigates the magnitude and variability of soil erosion in a long‐term experiment (LTE) established in 1963 in Colonia, Uruguay, aiming to compare the performance of the 137Cs tracer technique and the RUSLE model across ...

A Novel Method for Generating a Fused Ventilation–Perfusion Map Using CT‐Derived Ventilation and FDG‐PET for Lung Functional Avoidance in Radiotherapy: A Feasibility Study

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
This study retrospectively analyzed two types of respiratory phase CT and PET/CT images of 20 lung cancer patients. After DIR and functional grading, three lung function images were developed, and their correlations and differences were evaluated. Abstract Background Pulmonary ventilation–perfusion function plays a crucial role in both radiotherapy ...
