The uptake and distribution of several 4-(substituted amino)-iodoquinolines, 131I-labelled, and of 67Ga-citrate were investigated in Syrian golden hamsters with Greene melanomas. Because of its uptake in the melanoma (tumour/eye ratio 8.9), 4-(dimethylamino-ethylamino)-7-iodoquinoline (NM113) was selected for further investigations as a possible radiopharmaceutical for ocular scintigraphy when labelled with 123I. High uptake of NM113 turned out to be incidental and could not be favourably influenced by several pharmacological pretreatments. Affinity for melanin, as shown in in vitro experiments, unfavourably influences NM113 tumour-to-eye ratios. In comparison with 67Ga-citrate, the latter, with a high tumour-to-eye ratio (44.8 after 24 h) is more promising in patient studies in which NM113 123I was not.

Background: Current diagnostic imaging modalities have limited ability to differentiate between malignant and benign pancreaticobiliary disease, and lack accuracy in detecting lymph node metastases. F-Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) PET/CT is an imaging modality used for staging of prostate cancer, but has incidentally also identified PSMA-avid pancreatic lesions, histologically characterized as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This phase I/II study aimed to assess the feasibility of F-PSMA PET/CT to detect PDAC.

For hepatobiliary scintigraphy, the radiopharmaceutical drug, ETIFENIN (TECHIDA®), labelled with technetium-99m, is used as a substitute for MEBROFENIN (CHOLEDIAM®). It is generally accepted that radiopharmaceuticals should be checked prior to injection, in particular by determining radiochemical purity, to ensure high-quality images. Radiochromatographic techniques or methods described in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) and the European Pharmacopeia (Ph.

Purpose: Perfusion modeling presents significant opportunities for imaging biomarker development in breast cancer but has historically been held back by the need for data beyond the clinical standard of care (SoC) and uncertainty in the interpretability of results. We aimed to design a perfusion model applicable to breast cancer SoC dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) series with results stable to low temporal resolution imaging, comparable with published results using full-resolution DCE-MRI, and correlative with orthogonal imaging modalities indicative of biophysical markers.
Methods: Subsampled high-temporal-resolution DCE-MRI series were run through our perfusion model and resulting fits were compared for consistency.

In this study, a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) consisting of Rituximab and Chlorambucil (Rituximab-CMB) was synthesized. The average number of drug molecules attached per Rituximab molecule was determined using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, revealing a range of 4-6 drug molecules per antibody. To further improve the therapeutic potential of the ADC, it was radiolabeled with the therapeutic radionuclide Lu via a DOTA chelator, achieving a final radiochemical purity of over 95%.

Background And Purpose: This study aims to investigate the longitudinal changes in translocator protein (TSPO) following stroke in different brain regions and potential associations with chronic brain infarction.
Methods: Twelve patients underwent SPECT using the TSPO tracer 6-Chloro-2-(4'-123I-Iodophenyl)-3-(N,N-Diethyl)-Imidazo[1,2-a]Pyridine-3-Acetamide, as well as structural MRI, at 10, 41, and 128 days (median) after ischemic infarction in the middle cerebral artery. TSPO expression was measured in lesional (MRI lesion and SPECT lesion), connected (pons and ipsilesional thalamus), and nonconnected (ipsilesional cerebellum and contralesional occipital cortex) regions.
