BACKGROUND Positron emission tomography (PET) with 2‐deoxy‐2‐fluoro[ 18 F]‐D‐glucose
(FDG) can provide quantitative information about tumor glucose metabolism. The …

RESULTS Mean values of tumor sizes, TCRs, and OURs were shown in Table 2, and the
relationship between tumor size and TCR on PET images is shown in Figure 2. TCRs of all …

Technetium-99m-HMPAO (Tc-99m-HMPAO) labeled leukocyte imaging was carried out in
19 patients at 3–5 hr after reinjection. There were no side effects noted. Tc-99m leukocyte …

We report our experiences with the combined use of indium-111 labeled leukocyte imaging (In-111
WBC scan.), computed tomography (CT) and ultrasonography (US) for evaluation of …

The biodistribution of nanometer-sized colloidal particles (nanocolloids, Solco-Basle Ltd.)
was examined in six rabbits with turpentine-induced abscesses in the musculature of their …

[en] Abscess imaging with 111 In-oxine labeled leukocytes was performed in rabbits bearing
turpentine-induced abscesses. After simultaneous administration of 111 In-oxine labeled …

240 patients were subjected to the investigative radionuclide imaging of acute inflammatory
disease over the past 5 years. The results of the In-111 labeled leukocyte imaging …

1α, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [Calcitriol or 1, 25 (OH) 2D3] is an important active metabolite
involved in multiple functions but its calcemic effect in vivo limits its therapeutic applications. …
