    Abstract The prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an excellent target for theranostic applications in prostate cancer. However, PSMA-targeted radioligand therapy can cause undesirable effects due to high accumulation of PSMA radiotracers in salivary glands and kidneys. This study assessed orally administered monosodium glutamate (MSG) as a potential means of reducing kidney and salivary gland radiation exposure using a PSMA-targeting radiotracer.

    Abstract Purpose To investigate the relationship of 24- and 48-hour metformin discontinuation to bowel uptake of fluorine 18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) on PET/CT scans. Materials and Methods Patients with diabetes who were treated with metformin and referred for FDG PET/CT were randomized to three equal groups based on duration of metformin discontinuation: 24 hours, 48 hours, and no discontinuation (control group). Two interpreters blinded to the study groups assessed FDG uptake in multiple segments of small and large bowel qualitatively and semiquantitatively by using maximum standardized uptake values (SUVs

    Abstract Nuclear medicine technologists are specialized health professionals who cover a wide range of tasks from clinical routine (including image acquisition and processing, radiopharmaceutical dispensing and administration, patient care, and radioprotection tasks) to leading clinical research in the field of nuclear medicine. As a fundamental concern in all radiation sciences applied to medicine, protection of individuals against the harmful effects of ionizing radiation must be constantly revised and applied by the professionals involved in medical exposures. The acknowledgment that nuclear medicine technologists play a prominent role in patient management and several procedural steps, both in diagnostic and in therapeutic nuclear medicine applications, carries the duty to be trained and knowledgeable on the topic of radiation protection and dose optimization. An overview on selected topics related to dose optimization is presented in this article, reflecting the similarities and particularities of dose reduction-related principles, initiatives, and practicalities from a global perspective.
