nuclear medicine Flashcards
what is nuclear medicns (aka)
how does it work, what does it set out to measure
–
give examples of targets of nuclear medicne
what pharmaceutical can be used for these
what radioisotope label can be added
–
tissue perfusion
gucose metabolism
bone metabolism
MDP, MAA, FGD
what are these and what process are they related to
–
techetium-99m
flurine-18
what are these and what do they attach do and for what
–
how are radioisotyped labels measured
what are different ways that can be meauausred
–
what different parts of the body can be used for radio-pharmaceutical scintigraphy and why for each eg
what type of ray does this inolve
pto for hint
also what is usually used as marker
bone scintigraphy renal inflammation / infection lung thyroid CAD tumour grading
what is hybrid gamma imaging and what does it consist of
how is gamma radioimaging be made 2d or 3d - what is different
–
PET radiopharmeutucals
how does it work, what can be used and for what
pto for hunts
oncologt
cardiology
neurology
vasculiitis
PET-CT
what is this and what is it for
–
what are these for
Technetium-99m-Mag 3 Technetium-99m-MDP Technetium-99- DMSA In-111 label Technetium-99-m-MAA Technetium-99-m-DTPA Technetium-99m-pertechnetate Technetium-99-m- Tetrofosmin Indium-111-Octerotide (N-13- ammonia)/ (F-18- FDG)
Technetium-99m-Mag 3 (Dynamic renal function and drainage)
Technetium-99m-MDP (osteoblastic activity)
Technetium-99- DMSA
(Kidney function)
In-111 labelled white cell imaging
Technetium-99-m-MAA
(Lung perfusion)
Technetium-99-m-DTPA
(Lung ventilation)
Technetium-99m-pertechnetate (Sodium iodide symporter)
Technetium-99-m- Tetrofosmin (cardiac perfusion)
Indium-111-Octerotide
(Somatostatin receptor imaging)
Perfusion (N-13- ammonia)/metabolism (F-18- FDG) mismatch in hibernating myocardium.
