Radiosynovectomy in Hemophilic Synovitis
Radisosynovectomy (RS) is a local form of radionuclide therapy used in various forms of arthritis characterized by synovitis. In hemophilic arthropathy, RS provides removal of inflamed synovium and prevents further joint damage. This review focuses on the practical aspects of radionuclide synovectomy in hemophilic patients and describes the issues both

Lipoma Arborescens: Review of an Uncommon Cause for Swelling of the Knee
Lipoma arborescens is a rare cause of chronic monoarticular arthritis, with only a few cases reported in the literature. It is most commonly seen in the knee, but cases in other joints such as the wrist, shoulder, and elbow have also been described. It is a benign condition, in which the subsynovial tissue is replaced diffusely by mature fat cells.

Theranostic Imaging of Yttrium‐90
This paper overviews Yttrium‐90 (90Y) as a theranostic and nuclear medicine imaging of 90Y radioactivity with bremsstrahlung imaging and positron emission tomography. In addition, detection and optical imaging of 90Y radioactivity using Cerenkov luminescence will also be reviewed. Methods and approaches for qualitative and quantitative 90Y imaging will

188W/188Re Generator System and Its Therapeutic Applications
The 188Re radioisotope represents a useful radioisotope for the preparation of radiopharmaceuticals for therapeutic applications, particularly because of its favorable nuclear properties. The nuclide decay pattern is through the emission of a principle beta particle having 2.12 MeV maximum energy, which is enough to penetrate and destroy abnormal ...

Prevention of the Musculoskeletal Complications of Hemophilia
Hemophilia is an inherited disorder of clotting factor deficiencies resulting in musculoskeletal bleeding, including hemarthroses, leading to musculoskeletal complications. The articular problems of hemophiliac patients begin in infancy. These include: recurrent hemarthroses, chronic synovitis, flexion deformities, hypertrophy of the growth epiphyses ...

The use of radiosynovectomy in the rheumatologic practice [PDF]
Radiosynovectomy is a noninvasive method of local treatment of the joint synovitis using radioisotope. The radiation emitted by the radioisotope placed in the joint, causes fibrosis of the inflamed synovium and then its restoration and the return of its ...

A clinical practice guideline for primary care physiotherapy in patients with haemophilia
Abstract Introduction As a result of centralisation of haemophilia care to a limited number of intramural settings, many persons with haemophilia have to travel long distances to attend their haemophilia specialised treatment centre. However, regular physiotherapy treatment can be provided by primary care physiotherapists in the personʼs own region ...
