BCCHI-HCNN: Breast Cancer Classification from Histopathological Images Using Hybrid Deep CNN Models.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women globally, imposing a significant burden on global public health due to high death rates. Data from the World Health Organization show an alarming annual incidence of nearly 2.3 million new cases, drawing the attention of patients, healthcare professionals, and governments alike.

Targeting Breast Cancer Using 177 Lu-Labeled Trastuzumab and Trastuzumab Fragment : First-in-Human Clinical Experience.

Purpose: A monoclonal antibody, trastuzumab, is used for immunotherapy for HER2-expressing breast cancers. Large-sized antibodies demonstrate hepatobiliary clearance and slower pharmacokinetics. A trastuzumab fragment (Fab; 45 kDa) has been generated for theranostic use.

Cold kit for Rhenium-188 microspheres based selective intra-arterial therapy (SIRT): Preparation, characterization and feasibility study.

Selective-intra-arterial radionuclide therapy (SIRT) using radiolabeled microspheres are being widely employed for the delivery of therapeutic radioisotope to liver cancers by exploiting the dual blood supply to liver. It delivers the therapeutic radiations to tumor and spares the healthy liver. Several radiolabeled microspheres formulations, labelled with Y, are commercially available.

Nuclear medicine in the management of superficial skin abnormalities and institutional experience.

Keloid, hypertrophic scars and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) falls under the category of non-melanoma skin cancer. Intralesional steroids, external beam radiation therapy, 5-Fluorouracil, cryotherapy, laser, etc are the available treatment options. However, recurrence has been reported with each type of treatment mode.

Development 68Ga trastuzumab Fab and bioevaluation by PET imaging in HER2/neu expressing breast cancer patients.

Introduction: Receptors on breast cancer cells play a crucial role in the management of patients. Trastuzumab is a widely used drug for the treatment of HER2/neu expressing tumors. ImmunoPET with trastuzumab is not feasible due to slow pharmacokinetics.

Freeze-dried microspheres for selective intra-arterial radionuclide therapy: an affordable solution.

Objective: Selective intra-arterial radionuclide therapy (SIRT) using radiolabelled microspheres is for the delivery of therapeutic radioisotope to liver cancers and thus, sparing healthy liver. Several radiolabelled microspheres are commercially available. The main issue associated with these microspheres is affordability.

Concentration protocol of rhenium-188 perrhenate eluted from tungsten-188/rhenium-188 generator for the preparation of high-yield rhenium-188-labelled radiopharmaceuticals.

Rhenium-188 (Re) is a β, γ emitter and considered a theranostic radionuclide. It is used for bone pain palliation, treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, skin keloids, etc. Re perrhenate is eluted from a W/Re generator in large volumes (8-14 ml) of 0.

Noninvasive treatment of keloid using customized Re-188 skin patch.

Keloids are developed as fibrotic scar at the site of surgery or trauma and often enlarge beyond the original scar margins. Re-188 colloid coated customized patch was superficially fixed onto the lesion for 3 hrs. The same patch was reapplied on the lesion on third day for 3 hrs.
