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 […]
