摘要:
Treated apatite particles are disclosed for enhancing medical diagnostic imaging such as magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI"), magnetic resonance spectroscopy ("MRS"), magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging (37 MRSI"), X-ray diagnostic imaging, and ultrasound imaging. Novel coating and manufacturing techniques are disclosed to control particle size and particle aggregation resulting in compositions for organ specific imaging of the liver, spleen, gastrointestinal tract, or tissue disease states is obtained. Depending on the diagnostic imaging technique, apatite particles are treated to be paramagnetic, radiopaque, or echogenic. The apatite particles may also be fluorinated to form stable fluoroapatite compositions useful for .sup.19 F imaging. Also disclosed are diagnostic compositions and methods of performing medical diagnostic procedures which involve administering to a warm-blooded animal a diagnostically effective amount of the abovedescribed apatite particles and then performing the medical diagnostic procedure.

摘要:
The present invention provides radiation synovectomy compositions for treating inflamed synovium containing a radionuclide complex bound to a hydroxyapatite-like matrix as the radiolabelled synovectomy agent in a sufficient amount to provide satisfactory synovectomy of the inflamed synovium together with a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle, the radionuclide being a beta emitter that will substantially ablate the inflamed synovium, but not significantly damage underlying articular cartilage, the radionuclide complex being substantially kinetically stable, and if said radionuclide or radionuclide complex leaks from said joint it will be excreted from the body, the agent having a particle size such that there is essentially little or no leakage of the radionuclide complex from the joint after administration.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel compounds for use as imaging agents. In particular, the present invention relates to imaging agents comprising a heavy metal cluster having 2 to 8 atoms of the same of different heavy metal elements, and at least one coordinating ligand having 1 to 8 atoms which bond to the cluster, and a number of supporting atoms making up the framework of the ligand.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the stabilization of radiopharmaceutical preparations and to the stabilization of components of radiopharmaceutical kits. In particular, the present invention relates to stabilization of lyophilized components of radiopharmaceutical kits by the addition of a cyclic oligosaccharide, such as, a modified or unmodified cyclodextrin, to the kit.
