Monte Carlo evaluation of object shape effects in iodine-131 SPET tumor activity quantification
(Springer-Verlag, 2001-07)
In our clinical iodine-131 single-photon emission tomography (SPET) quantification for radioimmunotherapy, calibration and partial volume correction are based on measurements with phantoms containing spheres to simulate ...
CT urography

Diffusion tensor imaging of the brain: review of clinical applications
(Springer-Verlag, 2004-05)
We review the theoretical background to diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and some of its commoner clinical applications, such as cerebral ischemia, brain maturation and traumatic brain injury. We also review its potential ...
Synthesis and carbon-11 labeling of the stereoisomers of meta -hydroxyephedrine (HED) and meta -hydroxypseudoephedrine (HPED)
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2000-05)
The synthesis of the four stereoisomers of carbon-11 labeled meta -hydroxyephedrine (HED) and meta -hydroxypseudoephedrine (HPED) was undertaken for evaluation of their in vivo kinetic behavior. The stereoisomers of ...
