With an increasing variety of radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic or therapeutic nuclear medicine as valuable diagnostic or treatment option, radiobiology plays an important role in supporting optimizations. This comprises particularly safety and efficacy of radionuclide therapies, specifically tailored to each patient. As absorbed dose rates and absorbed dose distributions in space and time are very different between external irradiation and systemic radionuclide exposure, distinct radiation-induced biological responses are expected in nuclear medicine, which need to be explored. This calls for a dedicated nuclear medicine radiobiology. Radiobiology findings and absorbed dose measurements will enable an improved estimation and prediction of efficacy and adverse effects. Moreover, a better understanding on the fundamental biological mechanisms underlying tumor and normal tissue responses will help to identify predictive and prognostic biomarkers as well as biomarkers for treatment follow-up. In addition, radiobiology can form the basis for the development of radiosensitizing strategies and radioprotectant agents. Thus, EANM believes that, beyond in vitro and preclinical evaluations, radiobiology will bring important added value to clinical studies and to clinical teams. Therefore, EANM strongly supports active collaboration between radiochemists, radiopharmacists, radiobiologists, medical physicists, and physicians to foster research toward precision nuclear medicine.
Mehrere Autoren haben schon die Intra- und Interobserver-Variabilität bei der Bestimmung des Schilddrüsenvolumens und knotiger Herdbefunde mit Hilfe des zweidimensionalen (2D) Ultraschalls evaluiert. Darüber hinaus wurde über Interobserver-Korrelationen für Schilddrüsenvolumenmessungen berichtet. Es gibt jedoch keine prospektive verblindete Studie, die die Intra- bzw. Interobserver-Variabilität bei der Volumenbestimmung der gesamten Schilddrüse an gesunden Probanden bzw. einzelner Knoten unterschiedlicher Echogenität an einem Phantom untersucht hat. Die Ergebnisse der Einzelstudien sollen hier vorgestellt und – soweit möglich – miteinander verglichen werden. Im Rahmen einer quantitativen Studie mit dem hier präsentierten Schilddrüsenphantom soll die Intra- und Interobserver-Variabilität bei der 2D-Ultraschallvolumetrie einzelner Knoten unterschiedlicher Größe und Echogenität und der Schilddrüsenlappen evaluiert werden. Da Schilddrüsenknoten wegen des geringeren Volumens und ihrer oft unscharfen Randkontur schwieriger zu entdecken und auszumessen sind als die Gesamtschilddrüse, soll untersucht werden, welche Größenordnungen des Messfehlers auftreten und in welcher Relation sie zueinander stehen. Außerdem soll der methodenimmanente Fehler quantifiziert und detektierbare Volumenänderungen erfassbar gemacht werden. Bisher war in der Schilddrüsensonographie kein geeignetes Phantom verfügbar, das kommerziell erhältlich ist und mit dem qualitativ unterschiedliche intrathyreoidale Herdbefunde untersucht werden können. Die vorliegende Studie an gesunden Probanden hatte das primäre Ziel, die Frage nach der Quantifizierbarkeit von Unsicherheitsfaktoren in der Schilddrüsenvolumetrie durch den konventionellen 2D-Ultraschall im Vergleich zu 3D-Referenzvolumina bei gesunden Erwachsenen möglichst exakt zu beantworten und die Untersucherabhängigkeit der Methode zu demonstrieren. Damit soll die Genauigkeit (Richtigkeit und Präzision) der sonographischen Schilddrüsendiagnostik mathematisch erfasst und eine bessere Bewertungsgrundlage für die Frage nach der Reproduzierbarkeit von Ultraschall-Volumenbestimmungen der Schilddrüse und ihrer pathologischen Veränderungen geschaffen werden. Hierfür wurden möglichst aussagekräftige statistische Parameter wie die Intra- und Interobserver-Variabilität, der systematische und zufällige Fehler, der reine Fehler der Messmethode, minimale, sicher detektierbare Volumenänderungen und im Rahmen einer multivariaten Reliabilitätsanalyse die Reliabilitätskoeffizienten untersucht. Ein weiteres Ziel dieser Studie bestand darin, die Reliabilität der in der klinischen Routine benutzten Ellipsoidformel zur Berechnung des Schilddrüsenvolumens zu überprüfen.
The spleen selectively removes cells with intracellular inclusions, for example, detached nuclear fragments in circulating erythrocytes, called Howell–Jolly Bodies (HJBs). With absent or deficient splenic function HJBs appear in the peripheral blood and can be used as a simple and non-invasive risk-indicator for fulminant potentially life-threatening infection after spleenectomy. However, it is still under debate whether counting of the rare HJBs is a reliable measure of splenic function. Investigating HJBs in premature erythrocytes from patients during radioiodine therapy gives about 10 thousand times higher HJB counts than in blood smears. However, we show that there is still the risk of false-positive results by unspecific nuclear remnants in the prepared samples that do not originate from HJBs, but from cell debris residing above or below the cell. Therefore, we present a method to improve accuracy of image-based tests that can be performed even in non-specialized medical institutions. We show how to selectively label HJB-like clusters in human blood samples and how to only count those that are undoubtedly inside the cell. We found a “critical distance” dcrit referring to a relative HJB-Cell distance that true HJBs do not exceed. To rule out false-positive counts we present a simple inside-outside-rule based on dcrit—a robust threshold that can be easily assessed by combining conventional 2D imaging and straight-forward image analysis. Besides data based on fluorescence imaging, simulations of randomly distributed HJB-like objects on realistically modelled cell objects demonstrate the risk and impact of biased counting in conventional analysis. © 2017 The Authors.

Background: Sorbents have been shown to adsorb iodinated radiocontrast media. Objective: In this study we describe a simple method to compare various sorbents in terms of capacity to adsorb radiocontrast media. Methods: Iodixanol solution was injected into columns filled with three types of sorbent at filtration velocities of increasing magnitude. Two variables of interest – contrast removal rate and matched iodine retention (MIR) – were calculated to measure the adsorption efficiency and the mass of contrast iodine adsorbed versus sorbent used, respectively. Results: The highest contrast removal and MIR for Porapak Q, CST 401 and Amberlite XAD4 were 41, 38 and 16% (p = 0.22 and 0.0005 for comparisons between Porapak Q-CST 401 and CST 401-Amberlite XAD4) and 0.060, 0.055 and 0.024, respectively (p = 0.18 and 0.0008). Extrapolation to a clinical scenario may suggest that removal of 8 ml iodixanol could be achieved by masses of sorbents of 43, 47 and 107 g, respectively. Conclusion: In this study we set a benchmark for comparing the radiocontrast-adsorbing efficiency of polymer sorbents during first-pass experiments, using a readily available methodology.
Background:
Methylphenidate (MPH) is the first-line pharmacological treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). MPH binds to the dopamine (DA) transporter (DAT), which has high density in the striatum. Assessments of the striatal dopamine transporter by single positron emission computed tomography (SPECT) in childhood and adolescent patients are rare but can provide insight on how the effects of MPH affect DAT availability. The aim of our within-subject study was to investigate the effect of MPH on DAT availability and how responsivity to MPH in DAT availability is linked to clinical symptoms and cognitive functioning.
Methods
Thirteen adolescent male patients (9–16 years) with a diagnosis of ADHD according to the DSM-IV and long-term stimulant medication (for at least 6 months) with MPH were assessed twice within 7 days using SPECT after application of I-123-β-CIT to examine DAT binding potential (DAT BP). SPECT measures took place in an on- and off-MPH status balanced for order across participants. A virtual reality continuous performance test was performed at each time point. Further clinical symptoms were assessed for baseline off-MPH.
Results
On-MPH status was associated with a highly significant change (−29.9%) of striatal DAT BP as compared to off-MPH (t = −4.12, p = 0.002). A more pronounced change in striatal DAT BP was associated with higher off-MPH attentional and externalizing symptom ratings (Pearson r = 0.68, p = 0.01). Striatal DAT BP off-MPH, but not on-MPH, was associated with higher symptom ratings (Pearson r = 0.56, p = 0.04).
Conclusion
Our findings corroborate previous reports from mainly adult samples that MPH changes striatal DAT BP availability and suggest higher off-MPH DAT BP, likely reflecting low baseline DA levels, as a marker of symptom severity.
Background
Solitary metastases to the pancreas are rare. Therefore the value of resection in curative intention remains unclear. In the literature there are several promising reports about resection of solitary metastasis to the pancreas mainly of renal origin.
Case presentation
Here we report for the first time on the surgical therapy of a 1.5 cm solitary pancreatic metastasis of an adrenocortical carcinoma. The metastasis occurred almost 6 years after resection of the primary tumor. A partial pancreatoduodenectomy was performed and postoperatively adjuvant mitotane treatment was initiated. During the follow-up of 3 years after surgery no evidence of tumor recurrence occurred.
Conclusion
Resection of pancreatic tumors should be considered, even if the mass is suspicious for metastatic disease including recurrence of adrenocortical cancer.
Einleitung: Ultraschall wird seit mehr als 50 Jahren in der Medizin eingesetzt und ist mittlerweile ein unverzichtbares diagnostisches Verfahren, es erlaubt eine nicht-invasive Darstellung der Morphologie und Funktion von Organen in Echtzeit. In der Kleintierbildgebung dominieren bisher zur morphologischen Bildgebung Computertomographie (CT) und Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT). Daher wurde in der vorliegenden Arbeit die Idee entwickelt, die morphologischen Informationen des 3D-Ultraschalls (3D-US) für Untersuchungen an Kleintieren zu verwenden, außerdem sollten Methoden zur multimodalen Bildgebung und Bildfusion von 3D-US und Kleintier-Positronenemissionstomographie (PET) entwickelt werden. Der Vorteil des Ultraschalls gegenüber dem Kleintier-CT liegt in der fehlenden Strahlenbelastung und der guten Verfügbarkeit, was besonders für Verlaufsstudien von Interesse ist. Methoden und Ergebnisse: Zur Bildoptimierung wurde ein Fadenphantom entwickelt, welches aufgrund der feinen Strukturen die qualitative als auch quantitative Bestimmung der Auflösung ermöglicht. Die Vorarbeiten am Fadenphantom konnten exzellent die Probleme des 3D-Ultraschalls mit der achsenabhängigen Auflösung zeigen und ermöglichten eine schnelle Beurteilung der Bildqualität. Hier bestehen Einsatzmöglichkeiten in der Bewertung verschiedener Ultraschallgeräte bezüglich der Tauglichkeit für 3D-Datenaquisition. Zur reproduzierbaren Lagerung von Mäusen wurde eine Schallkopfführung ein sowohl für 3D-US als auch Kleintier-PET kompatibler Tierhalter entwickelt. Die Maus lag zur Untersuchung im angewärmten Wasserbad auf dem Tierhalter fixiert, mit Inhalationsanästhesie und Sauerstoff über eine Atemmaske versorgt. Der Zeitaufwand für eine 3D-US-Untersuchung betrug für die Akquisition etwa eine Minute. Die generierten Ultraschalldatensätze waren von guter Qualität, Strukturen wie Leber, Nieren, Blase, Wirbelsäule und Lunge konnten selbst bei kleinen Mäusen von unter 20 Gramm Körpergewicht gut dargestellt werden. Zur Validierung des 3D-Ultraschalls wurde das Volumen verschiedener Organe und Tumore bestimmt und mit dem Goldstandard verglichen. Um die Koregistrierung mit der Kleintier-PET zu ermöglichen, wurden auf dem Tierhalter drei „fiducial markers“ angebracht, die Position und Orientierung eindeutig definieren. Die Kleintier-PET-Untersuchungen wurden nach standardisierten Protokollen durchgeführt. Die anschließende Bildfusion erfolgte mittels der frei verfügbaren Software "Amide". Diskussion: Mit dem in dieser Arbeit beschriebenen Verfahren ist eine standardisierte Gewinnung von 3D-US-Datensätzen an Kleintieren möglich; zusätzlich konnte die Machbarkeit der Bildfusion mit PET-Datensätzen gezeigt werden. Der Einsatz des 3D-Ultraschalls in longitudinalen Studien, zum Beispiel zur Beurteilung der Tumorprogression, ist vorstellbar. Die Zuverlässigkeit der volumetrischen Berechnungen ist für größere Organvolumina gut, bei kleineren Volumina besteht noch Optimierungsbedarf. Weitere Verbesserungen könnten durch den Einsatz von speziellen Schallköpfen und höheren Schallfrequenzen erzielt werden.
Background
\(^{177}\)Lu is used in peptide receptor radionuclide therapies for the treatment of neuroendocrine tumors. Based on the recent literature, SST2 antagonists are superior to agonists in tumor uptake. The compound OPS201 is the novel somatostatin antagonist showing the highest SST2 affinity. The aim of this study was to measure the in vivo biodistribution and dosimetry of \(^{177}\)Lu-OPS201 in five anesthetized Danish Landrace pigs as an appropriate substitute for humans to quantitatively assess the absorbed doses for future clinical applications.
Results
\(^{177}\)Lu-OPS201 was obtained with a specific activity ranging from 10 to 17 MBq/μg. Prior to administration, the radiochemical purity was measured as s > 99.7 % in all cases. After injection, fast clearance of the compound from the blood stream was observed. Less than 5 % of the injected activity was presented in blood 10 min after injection. A series of SPECT/CT and whole-body scans conducted until 10 days after intravenous injection showed uptake mostly in the liver, spine, and kidneys. There was no visible uptake in the spleen. Blood samples were taken to determine the time-activity curve in the blood. Time-activity curves and time-integrated activity coefficients were calculated for the organs showing visible uptake. Based on these data, the absorbed organ dose coefficients for a 70-kg patient were calculated with OLINDA/EXM. For humans after an injection of 5 GBq \(^{177}\)Lu-OPS201, the highest predicted absorbed doses are obtained for the kidneys (13.7 Gy), the osteogenic cells (3.9 Gy), the urinary bladder wall (1.8 Gy), and the liver (1.0 Gy). No metabolites of 177Lu-OPS201 were found by radio HPLC analysis. None of the absorbed doses calculated will exceed organ toxicity levels.
Conclusions
The \(^{177}\)Lu-OPS201 was well tolerated and caused no abnormal physiological or behavioral signs. In vivo distributions and absorbed doses of pigs are comparable to those observed in other publications. According to the biodistribution data in pigs, presented in this work, the expected radiation exposure in humans will be within the acceptable range.
Introduction. \(^{177}\)Lu-OPS201 is a high-affinity somatostatin receptor subtype 2 antagonist for PRRT in patients with neuroendocrine tumors. The aim is to find the optimal scaling for dosimetry and to compare the biokinetics of \(^{177}\)Lu-OPS201 in animals and humans. Methods. Data on biokinetics of \(^{177}\)Lu-OPS201 were analyzed in athymic nude Foxn1\(^{nu}\) mice (28 F, weight: 26 ± 1 g), Danish Landrace pigs (3 F-1 M, weight: 28 ± 2 kg), and patients (3 F-1 M, weight: 61 ± 17 kg) with administered activities of 0.19–0.27 MBq (mice), 97–113 MBq (pigs), and 850–1086 MBq (patients). After euthanizing mice (up to 168 h), the organ-specific activity contents (including blood) were measured. Multiple planar and SPECT/CT scans were performed until 250 h (pigs) and 72 h (patients) to quantify the uptake in the kidneys and liver. Blood samples were taken up to 23 h (patients) and 300 h (pigs). In pigs and patients, kidney protection was applied. Time-dependent uptake data sets were created for each species and organ/tissue. Biexponential fits were applied to compare the biokinetics in the kidneys, liver, and blood of each species. The time-integrated activity coefficients (TIACs) were calculated by using NUKFIT. To determine the optimal scaling, several methods (relative mass scaling, time scaling, combined mass and time scaling, and allometric scaling) were compared. Results. A fast blood clearance of the compound was observed in the first phase (<56 h) for all species. In comparison with patients, pigs showed higher liver retention. Based on the direct comparison of the TIACs, an underestimation in mice (liver and kidneys) and an overestimation in pigs’ kidneys compared to the patient data (kidney TIAC: mice = 1.4 h, pigs = 7.7 h, and patients = 5.8 h; liver TIAC: mice = 0.7 h, pigs = 4.1 h, and patients = 5.3 h) were observed. Most similar TIACs were obtained by applying time scaling (mice) and combined scaling (pigs) (kidney TIAC: mice = 3.9 h, pigs = 4.8 h, and patients = 5.8 h; liver TIAC: mice = 0.9 h, pigs = 4.7 h, and patients = 5.3 h). Conclusion. If the organ mass ratios between the species are high, the combined mass and time scaling method is optimal to minimize the interspecies differences. The analysis of the fit functions and the TIACs shows that pigs are better mimicking human biokinetics.
Der Follow-UP von Patienten mit differenziertem Schilddrüsenkarzinom (DTC) wird konventionell mit I-131-Ganzkörperzintigrafie (GKS) und Bestimmung des Serumthyreoglobulins (hTg) durchgeführt. Wegen der Inzidenz von 15%-20% diskordanter Resultate entwickelte Bianchi et al. (J Nucl Med 1993; 34: 2032-2037) die Serumchromatografie von endogen radioiodiertem Triiodthyronin (L-T3) und Thyroxin (L-T4) bei Patienten mit DTC nach oraler Applikation von I-131. Da im Rahmen des Iodstoffwechsels auch radioiodierte Verbindungen im Urin erscheinen, versuchten wir eine Urinchromatografiemethode zu entwickeln, basierend auf der Annahme, dass ein pathologischer I-131-Uptake, wenngleich zu niedrig um im GKS erkannt zu werden, gleichwohl über endogen iodierte Schilddrüsenprodukte im Urin nachgewiesen werden kann. In der Urinchromatografie konnten die Ergebnisse der Serumchromatografie nicht erreicht werden.
