Radiotherapy (RT) is a frequently used means in clinical tumor treatment. The outcome of RT varies, however, to a great extent, due to RT resistance or intolerable dose, which might be resolved by the development of radio-sensitizing strategies. Here, we

Pathological regional blood flow in opiate-dependent patients during withdrawal: A HMPAO-SPECT study [PDF]
The aims of the present study were to investigate regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in heroin-dependent patients during withdrawal and to assess the relation between these changes and duration of heroin consumption and withdrawal data.

Anti-N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor Encephalitis with Decrease in Blood Flow in Cerebellum
In anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis, progressive cerebellar atrophy potentially leads to severe sequelae. We encountered a patient with anti-NMDAR antibody encephalitis who showed a decrease of blood flow in the cerebellum.

Bronchial Circulation Angiogenesis in the Rat Quantified with SPECT and Micro-CT [PDF]
Introduction As pulmonary artery obstruction results in proliferation of the bronchial circulation in a variety of species, we investigated this angiogenic response using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and micro-CT.

Distribution and dynamics of Tc-99m-pertechnetate uptake in the thyroid and other organs assessed by single-photon emission computed tomography in living mice [PDF]
Background: Tc-99m pertechnetate is a well-known anion, used for clinical imaging of thyroid function. This gamma emitter is transported by the sodium iodide symporter but is not incorporated into thyroglobulin. Scintigraphy using Tc-99m pertechnetate or

A practical method for assessing quantitative scanner accuracy with long-lived radionuclides: The ARTnet insert [PDF]
Objective(s): To address the problem of using large volumes of long-lived radionuclides in test phantoms to check calibration accuracy of PET and SPECT systems we have developed a test object which (a) contains less radioactivity, (b) has a low total ...
