Long-Term Palliative Effect of Stenting in Gastric Outlet Obstruction Due to Transarterial Chemoembolization with Yttrium-90 in a Patient with Metastatic Neuroendocrine Tumor [PDF]
Internal radioembolization with yttrium-90 is a promising treatment method, predominantly for liver tumors. However, the shifting of yttrium-90-loaded spherules into the arteries and veins that supply the duodenum and stomach, leading to ulceration ...

Optically addressing single rare-earth ions in a nanophotonic cavity [PDF]
We demonstrate optical probing of spectrally resolved single Nd rare-earth ions in yttrium orthovanadate. The ions are coupled to a photonic crystal resonator and show strong enhancement of the optical emission rate via the Purcell effect, resulting in ...

Paper Chromatography for the Radiochemical Control of 90Y for it’s Clinical Uses [PDF]
Our aim in this work was to develop a reliable technique to accurately determine the amount of Yttrium-90 in Strontium-90 used for therapy. Yttrium-90 which can be used for clinical purposes should be in a very high radionuclide purity,therefore a ...

Treatment response evaluation using Yttrium-90 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis of knee joint
For radiosynovectomy, we have measured the retention time of yttrium-90 (90Y) hydroxyapatite (particle size 1–10 μm) within the knee joint space and evaluated the treatment responses in knees with rheumatoid arthritis.

Predictive SIRT dosimetry based on a territorial model
Background In the planning of selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) for liver cancer treatment, one major aspect is to determine the prescribed activity and to estimate the resulting absorbed dose inside normal liver and tumor tissue.
