A type of light commonly observed in astrophysics experiments and nuclear reactors can help detect cancer. In a clinical trial, a prototype of an imaging machine that relies on this usually bluish ...
A multicenter study led by London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute (LHSCRI), Lawson Research Institute of St. Joseph ...
A novel nuclear medicine imaging protocol can take the place of two separate imaging scans for the evaluation of brain changes linked to cognitive impairment, cutting costs and radiation exposure for ...
A PET scan is often used to help determine a cancer diagnosis. A positron emission tomography (PET) scan uses a tracer with low levels of radiation to find places in your body where cells are ...
A lead halide material can detect and image single gamma-ray photons with both high-spatial and high-energy resolution ...
June 19, 2002 -- Depreotide, a somatostatin receptor-seeking peptide labeled with Tc-99m, identified 100% of sites of infection or inflammation in 19 patients shortly after injection, according to a ...
Positron emission tomography (PET) scans can detect cancer earlier than other imaging tests. But some types of cancer are harder to detect on a PET scan. In particular, they may miss cancers that ...
