In vitro and in vivo/SPECT imaging in SkBr3-bearing mice demonstrated that ¹¹¹ In-DOTA-trastuzumab is a potential compound for molecular imaging of SPECT for diagnosis and follow-up of HER2 expression in oncology.
The TALYS code: TALYS is a computer code system Rhenium-186, having a half-life of 90.64 h, is an important radionuclide, used in metabolic radiotherapy and radio immunotherapy. 186 Re hydroxyethylidene diphosphonate (HEDP) is a new compound used for the palliation of painful skeletal metastases. Its production is achieved via charged-particle-induced reactions; the data are available in EXFOR library. For the work discussed in this paper, production of 186 Re was done via nat W(p,n) 186 Re nuclear reaction. Pellets of nat W were used as targets and were irradiated with 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25 MeV proton beams at 5 µA current. The radiochemical separation was performed by the ion exchange chromatography method. The production yield achieved at 25 MeV was 1.91 MBq·µA -1 ·h -1 .Excitation functions for the 186 Re radionuclide, via 186 W(p,n) 186 Re and 186 W(d,2n) 186 Re reactions were calculated by ALICE-ASH and TALYS-1.0 codes to validate and fit the experimental data and to obtain a recommended set of data for 186 W(p,n) 186 Re reaction. Required thickness of the targets was obtained by SRIM code for each reaction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
