The webinar primarily focuses on the clinical value and implementation of early phase SPECT-CT in non-oncological settings, emphasizing its advantages over traditional planar imaging and late-phase bone scans. It highlights the diagnostic enhancement of early-phase imaging for inflammatory conditions, pain assessment, and soft-tissue evaluation. New treatment options for cardiac amyloidosis are increasing interest in early […]
Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a rare but clinically significant group of malignancies arising from neuroendocrine cells, often presenting in the gastrointestinal tract or lungs. While NETs account for a small fraction of overall cancer cases, their incidence is steadily rising. Radioguided surgery has emerged as a highly effective approach for treating NETs, particularly in cases […]

This webinar provides an overview of the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis in nuclear cardiology . Background information on amyloidosis in general is presented and typical disease manifestations are discussed. Furthermore, the significance of cardiac amyloidosis will be discussed in detail and possible therapeutic options will be explained. In this context, the relevance of quantification to […]
In nuclear medicine, diagnostic as well as therapeutic, radiopharmaceuticals are administered via an intravenous injection, in a majority of the procedures in a blood vessel at the crook of the arm or on the back of the hand. Occasionally, the injection fails, which results in the radiopharmaceutical ending up extravascularly. The consequence of this may […]
The purpose of this seminar is to provide a comprehensive overview of radionuclide therapy using alpha-emitting isotopes, focusing on their current clinical and preclinical applications. It will explore the unique advantages of alpha emitters, such as their high linear energy transfer and short path length, which allow for precise tumor cell killing with minimal damage […]
For performing the PET/CT examination, the administration of radiopharmaceutical as unavoidable for imaging with PET. Inversely, the administration of contrast agent to improve the quality of CT part of PET/CT as optional. The accurate intravenous administration of diagnostic radiopharmaceutical (and optionally of contrast agent) may be challenging in some cases, in particular in patients with […]
This webinar will emphasize the critical importance of radiation protection in safeguarding both the occupational health of care providers and the well-being of patients undergoing radionuclide therapy. It will underscore the necessity of adhering to established guidelines and protocols when handling radioactive materials to ensure safety and treatment efficacy. Furthermore, the session will explore the […]
