SummaryAn account is given of the principles of lymph node dosimetry in radioisotope therapy with Lipiodol 131J. After a general introduction, exact data on the concentrations reached by the radionuclide in the lymph nodes, liver, spleen, thyroid and blood of patients subjected to this treatment are reported. Finally mention is made of a number of particularly interesting autopsy findings.
We develop chemically cross-linked poly-N,N′-dimethyl aminoethyl methacrylate (PDMAEMA) smart nanogel as an excellent thermosensitive nanocarrier to load both anticancer drug, doxorubicine (DOX), and radioisotope131I-labeled albumin for enhanced chemo-radioisotope therapy.
Graves' disease is rather rare occurrence in the childhood, with the girls being the most frequently affected gender. The draft clinical guidelines on diagnostics and treatment of Graves' disease in the children and adolescents are proposed for the extensive discussion. The guidelines are intended for pediatric endocrinologists, pediatrists, surgeons, and specialists in radioisotope therapy.
