Abstract: | A comprehensive review has been made to discuss the role of various radionuclides of lanthanide series elements in the field
of nuclear medicine. The role of several pharmaceuticals labeled with radiolanthanides and used for investigative purposes
like measurement of cerebral blood flow, bone density measurement, bone marrow imaging, etc., have been described. The role
of lanthanide radionuclides in radiation synovectomy, radioimmunotherapy, etc., have also been discussed. Methods of preparation
of some representative radiopharmaceuticals like153Sm-EDTMP,153Sm-HYP, have been presented. An outline on the production of carrier free radioisotopes of lanthanide series elements has
been given. |
