摘要:
Disclosed herein is a radiation imaging apparatus and radiation-imaging-apparatus-based nuclear medicine diagnosis apparatus having a collimator in which a plurality of rectangular through-holes are arranged in a grid pattern and separated by septa is rotated through a predetermined angle as viewed from above in relation to the layout of a plurality of rectangular detectors that are arranged in a grid pattern. The predetermined angle ranges from 20 to 70 degree and more preferably from 30 deg to 60 deg. With this configuration, the influence of sensitivity variations (moire patterns) that are included in an image picked up due to interference with a collimator when pixel type detectors are used is eliminated.

A nuclear medicine diagnosis apparatus, which rotates a rod-shaped radiation source or a point radiation source while changing the radius thereof and carries out a calibration work, is provided to resolve the following problems. If detector calibration is carried out using a cylindrical phantom whose interior is filled with a 18F solution, for example, there is a risk that a γ-ray is scattered by the aqueous solution itself inside the cylindrical phantom. Although there is a method for correcting the scattered radiation, the method has a disadvantage that the correction results in poor calibration. Moreover, if a rod-shaped radiation source is rotated inside a tunnel, there is an extremely low risk of causing the above-described scattering because it is rod-shaped. However, this rod-shaped radiation source only rotates on an orbit of a certain radius, resulting in a ring-shaped radiation source having a hollow portion thereinside.

A desired isomer is selectively prepared by phosphorolyzing and isomerizing an anomer mixture of a 1-phosphorylated saccharide derivative while crystallizing one of the isomers to displace the equilibrium. Furthermore, using the action of a nucleoside phosphorylase, a nucleoside is prepared from the 1-phosphorylated saccharide derivative obtained and a base with improved stereoselectivity and a higher yield. This process is an anomer-selective process for preparing a 1-phosphorylated saccharide derivative and a nucleoside.

This invention provides a method for efficiently purifying 5′-protected thymidines which cannot be efficiently purified by the prior art. Impurities can be separated by obtaining crystals including a carbonyl-containing solvent to provide a highly pure 5′-protected thymidine. Thus, this invention allows 5′-protected thymidines, which cannot be purified in an industrial scale by the prior art, to be easily provided with a high purity in a large scale.

The novel benzamide derivative represented by formula (1) and the novel anilide derivative represented by formula (13) of this invention has differentiation-inducing effect, and are, therefore, useful a therapeutic or improving agent for malignant tumors, autoimmune diseases, dermatologic diseases and parasitism. In particular, they are highly effective as an anticancer drug, specifically to a hematologic malignancy and a solid carcinoma.

A collimator, a radiological imaging apparatus and a nuclear medicine diagnosis apparatus which are able to improve the sensitivity are provided. The radiological imaging apparatus has a collimator 11 disposed to oppose a radiological detection device 12 and having through-holes 11a for passing to the radiological detection device 12 gamma rays in a specified direction out of those radiated from an object to be examined. The collimator 11 is produced by mutually coupling a plurality of metal tubular members 11A each having the through-hole 11a with the help of a bonding agent S in alignment with a plurality of detectors 12a constituting the radiological detection device 12.
摘要:
A nuclear medial diagnosis apparatus is used for performing diagnosis by administering a medicine marked with a radioactive isotope into an examinee and by using an image obtained by detecting gamma rays emitted from a particular organ or tumor where the medicine is accumulated. An image (an image created by an image creation unit) is created by a signal (a signal as an output from a radiation detector) corresponding to the energy of the gamma ray detected by a radiation detector. The image includes a contamination component attributed to gamma scattering in the radiation detector. An image correction operation unit performs a convolution operation to obtain a contamination image. The contamination image is subtracted by a corrected image creation unit. Thus, it is possible to prevent image degradation by the gamma ray scattering in the radiation detector.

A method for efficiently purifying 5′ protected 2′-deoxypurine nucleosides, efficient production of which has previously been difficult. Impurities can be separated by obtaining the 5′ protected 2′-deoxypurine nucleoside as an inclusion crystal including a solvent such as that having a nitrile structure in order to purify the 5′ protected 2′-deoxypurine nucleoside at a high purity. This invention enables synthesis of highly purified, protected deoxypurine nucleosides easily on a large scale, which has previously been performed by column chromatography method.
