They use radioactive materials to diagnose and treat diseases. Utilizing techniques such as scintigraphy, these physicians analyze images of the body's organs to visualize certain diseases. They may also use radiopharmaceuticals to treat hyperthyroidism, thyroid cancer, tumors, and bone cancer.</p> http://medicalresearch.be/index.php/jnm/article/view/50 Influence of Transport Line Material on the Molar Activity 2022-02-06T07:30:06+00:00 Solin Johansson * jasoninglis14@gmail.com <p>Our objective was to assess the anxiety level in cancer patients undergoing nuclear medicine exams and to identify how professionals can improve patient experience the drug was prepared in an International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 5 environment. Multiple dry baths and needle types were used to investigate the effects of reaction temperature and metal contamination, respectively. Temperature curves were obtained with a calibrated thermocouple. The influence of the accuracy of the NETSPOT reagent volume and its effect on outcome were investigated.&nbsp;<strong>Results:</strong>&nbsp;The AccuBlock dry bath required recalibration for the ISO 5 environment; after calibration, the temperature was stable (only ±0.1°C from the set point).</p> 2022-01-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2022 http://medicalresearch.be/index.php/jnm/article/view/51 Radio pharmacologic screening of antibodies to the unshed codomain of MUC16 in ovarian cancer 2022-02-06T07:31:18+00:00 Lewis wang* prajapatyg@gmail.com <p>Prospective monocentric study including 35 patients with biopsy-proven EC undergoing preoperative&nbsp;<sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/MRI&nbsp;(December 2018–March 2021) for staging purpose. Histological examination was the reference standard.

Furthermore, the radiomic model showed robustness when validated in treatment subgroups.</p> 2022-02-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2022
