Sentence examples for particles for therapy from inspiring English sources

Both rhenium radionuclides emit not only beta particles for therapy but also gamma rays, which are suitable for diagnoses: Re (T1/2 = 3.78 days, βmax⁡− = 1.07 MeV, γ = 137 keV) and Re (T1/2 = 16.98 hours, βmax⁡− = 2.12 MeV, γ = 155 keV) (Table 1).

If so, the use of 230U offers the possibility to profit from 5 α-particles for therapy, due to the very short half-lifes of 218Rn and 214Po and the very long one of the "quasi stable" 210Pb, while only the first two recoiling daughter radionuclides in the decay chain must be retained by the carrier entity.

This novel molecular response to HZE particles may have implications for radiotherapy including particle selection for therapy and risk for second cancers, risk for cancers from diagnostic radiation exposures, as well as NASA's efforts to develop more accurate lung cancer risk estimates for astronaut safety.

Here we have discussed about designing the magnetic particles for hyperthermia therapy and done some studies in this direction.

However, the preparation of viral particles for gene therapy remains tedious and carries the risks of contamination by infectious agents, including the replication-competent virus generated by the recombination between vector and packaging cell lines.

However, the production of viable particles for gene therapy is hampered by the low ratio of infectious to non-infectious viral particles after purification, low titers and limited number of competent viral receptors.

Furthermore, NPs are applied in various medical products such as contrast agents for imaging or metal oxide particles for cancer therapy (Gupta and Gupta 2005; Rasmussen et al. 2010).

A model system has been used to test the efficacy of vascular targeting of α-particle emitterBi for therapy of small, 'artificial' metastases in mouse lung.

Another important nano-sized particle for cancer therapy is ZnO which has an inherent capacity to induce apoptosis in cancer cells while rendering very less toxic effect towards normal proliferating cells [7, 8].

However, even if the local control and the survival rates for particles therapy are higher, compared to conventional radiotherapy relapse could always occur.

Then the use of a gamma ray-emitting radionuclides for a chemically comparable beta-particle-emitting paired isotope for therapy evaluation would be feasible.
