After internal exposure to 67Ga-EDTMP, the sar-coma cell has been injured severely. The comet length was longer along with the increase of dose, the appearance ofcomet tail was different from that with respect to the 60Co γ-ray irradiation. DNA damage of cell was mainly due tothe radiation effect of Auger electrons. The 67Ga may be a therapeutic radionuclide with good prospect for tumortreatment and palliation of bone pain induced by metastasis.展开更多

A standard CT head dosimetry phantom and thermoluminescent dosime- ters (TLD) were used for the measurement. The effect of collimation and pitch on radiation dose was studied. The results indicated that the radiation dose at the given tube current,voltage and rotation speed was inversely propor- tional to pitch. And the increasing times of dose were as decreasing times of pitch. This regular pattern was tenable for radiation dose at both central holes and peripheral holes of the phantom at pitch = 1,>1 and <1. The collimation had no impact on the radiation dose. The results also indicated that radiation dose at central holes was nearly equal to that at peripheral holes. There was no significant difference between them statistically. The study demonstrates that the pitch in spiral CT scans is the primary parameter and has significant impact on radiation dose.展开更多

The blood clearance curve was obtained and fitted with the two-compartment model. The results showed that 125I-IL-8 was obtained with a labeling efficiency of 12.2% ±6.5% and a radiochemical purity of 91.4%±6.5%. Its spe- cific activity was 14.8 kBq/μg IL-8. A fast phase half – life T1/2 of 0.32 h and a slow phase half – life T1/2 of 8.01 h α β were calculated from the blood clearance curve. The uptakes of radioactivities in kidneys and lung had the peaks of 85.87%ID /g and 16.17%ID /g at 30 min after intravenous injection, respectively. The uptakes in liver and spleen were 12.05%ID /g and 8.97%ID /g as the maximum at 5 min after injection. The clearance in blood and other organs was fast. Except for kidneys and lung, 125I –IL-8 was less than 1%ID/ g 24 h after administration. It is concluded that radioiodinated IL-8 is a promising radiopharmaceutical in nuclear medicine, especially for imaging infection. But to enhance the labeling efficiency of radioiodinated IL-8 and to decrease its in vivo deiodination are the subjects neces- sary to be further investigated.展开更多
