PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate the elastographic appearance of thyroid gland tumors
and explore the potential sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonographic (US) elastography …

Theabsorbedradiationdosefrominternallydepositedradio nuclides is a major factor in assessing
risk and therapeutic utility when evaluating new radiopharmaceuticals for use in nuclear …

Context.—High-dose iodine 131 is the treatment of choice in the United States for most adults
with hyperthyroid disease. Although there is little evidence to link therapeutic 131I to the …

The potential of α-particle emitters to treat cancer has been recognized since the early 1900s.
Advances in the targeted delivery of radionuclides and radionuclide conjugation chemistry…

In internal radionuclide therapy, a growing interest in voxel-level estimates of tissue-absorbed
dose has been driven by the desire to report radiobiologic quantities that account for the …

Purpose: To prospectively estimate the accuracy of sonoelastography in the differentiation
of benign and metastatic cervical lymph nodes (LNs) in patients suspected of having thyroid …

Background: The Chornobyl accident in 1986 exposed thousands of people to radioactive
iodine isotopes, particularly 131 I; this exposure was followed by a large increase in thyroid …

… Analyses of the absorbed dose versus hematologic toxicity have confirmed this but have …
Ideally, the relationship observed between red marrow absorbed dose and hematopoetic …

Renal toxicity associated with small-molecule radionuclide therapy has been shown to be
dose-limiting for many clinical studies. Strategies for maximizing dose to the target tissues …

Laboratory as previously described (7— 10). The specific activity obtained at the end of
synthesis was 20— 25 mCi/mg, and radiochemical purity was 96-98%(10). The specific activity …
