Radionuclide image

For the successful treatment of human malignancy accurate staging and detection of primary and metastatic diseases is crucial. Liposomes have been shown to be useful for oncological radionuclide imaging. Profitt et al. (1983) demonstrated that stable, small.

Radiophannaceuticals are almost ideal diagnostic tools because radioisotope tracers do not alter body physiology, and they permit external monitoring with minimal instrumentation. Presently, there are three major areas of nuclear medicine (1) physiological function studies, (2) radionuclide imaging procedures, and (3) therapeutic techniques. 

Radionuclide Imaging Procedures. Brain tumors can be detected by external counting of radionuclides, a procedure introduced into general clinical use in the late 1950s. A significant advance in brain tumor imaging was the introduction of the gamma camera, which permitted more rapid studies with multiple views, as well as dynamic cerebral blood flow assessment.
