The targeted infusion of radioactive microspheres (radioembolization)represents one such therapy. Radioembolization is a minimally invasive transcatheter therapy through which radioactive microspheres are infused into the hepatic arteries that supply tumor. Once infused,these microspheres traverse the hepatic vascular plexus and selectively implant within the tumor arterioles.Embedded within the arterioles, the 90Y impregnated microspheres emit high energy and low penetrating radiation doses selectively to the tumor.Radioembolization has recently shown promise for the treatment of patients with unresectable HCC. The objective of this review article is to highlight twocurrently available radioembolic devices(90Y,188Rh)and provide the reader with a recent review of the literature.展开更多

Its lyophilized kit was developed for instant preparing of188Re-HEDP.188Re-HEDP showed high focile uptake in normal mice(> 30% ID/g at carrier co-injection) in BABLC/SPF mice. High quality single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT) image of New Zealand rabbit was obtained at 4 h after intravenous injection of 74 MBq radiotracer. The lyophilized HEDP kit affords the new opportunity for routine clinical application in bone metastases therapy.展开更多
Click chemistry was used to study on radiolabeling of 1,2,3-triazole analogs with fac-[188 Re(CO) 3 (H 2 O) 3]+ .

CuSO 4 /L-sodium ascorbate was chosen as the catalyst system, three terminal alkynes were conjugated with two different azides respectively, and then the new prepared fac-[188 Re(CO) 3 (H 2 O) 3]+ was coordinated to the six triazoles. The results showed that the radiochemical yields (RCY) of the conjugation of fac-[188 Re(CO) 3]+ with six triazoles were over 90%, and the triazoles showed high stability in phosphate-buffered saline and new-born calf serum. The preliminary biological evaluation results showed that the new 188 Re-labeling method via click chemistry could have general application in labeling bioactive molecules in high radiochemical yield and high specific activity for further SPECT research.展开更多

When looking for "matched pairs" of radionuclides, suitable for radiolabeling of peptides for diagnosis and therapy, technetium and rhenium represent an almost ideal constellation. The important role of technetium-99m and Re-186/188 is based on the decay characteristics, suitable for tumor diagnosis and therapy. Tc-99m and Re-188 are readily available by either a 99Mo/99mTc or the 188W/188Re ra- dionuclide generator system. Furthermore, technetium and rhenium are chemically related and share structural as well as reactive similarities, which prompt an attractive "matched-pair" situation. This article shows an overview of 99mTc- and 186/188Re-radiolabeled peptides that have been tested for their potential use as imaging and therapeutic agents in oncological diseases.展开更多
