$^{18}$F-PSMA-1007 salivary gland dosimetry: Comparison between different methods for dose calculation and assessment of inter- and intra-patient variability [PDF]
Dosimetry of salivary glands (SGs) is usually implemented using simplified calculation approaches and approximated geometries. Our aims were to compare different dosimetry methods to calculate SGs absorbed doses (ADs) following 18F-PSMA-1007 injection, and to assess the AD variation across patients and single SG components.

Human synenkephalin [1–53] (hSYN), an analogue peptide of shrew saliva neurotoxins, was synthesized and its structural characteristics studied. Synthetic hSYN potently activated the T‐type voltage‐gated Ca channel hCav3.2 but did not paralyze mealworms. These findings offer new insight into neurological disorder treatment and evolutionary mechanisms of
