A review in Brain Medicine unveils the potential of targeted alpha particle therapy (TAT) as an innovative and exciting ...

Targeted alpha therapy shows promise in treating neuroendocrine tumours, offering hope where beta therapies fall short.

In a comprehensive Genomic Press Viewpoint (review) article, researchers are shining a spotlight on a revolutionary approach to tackling neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), a rare but increasingly prevalent ...

Metastatic melanoma, also known as stage IV melanoma, is a type of skin cancer that spreads to other parts of the body. It is ...

the researchers determined the energies and directions of the emitted beta particle and two alpha particles with high precision. This approach allowed the researchers to reconstruct the full decay ...

Metastatic melanoma, also known as stage IV melanoma, is a type of skin cancer that spreads to other parts of the body.

Gamma radiation does not consist of particles but as short wavelength, high energy electromagnetic radiation emitted from unstable nuclei. It is normally emitted alongside alpha or beta radiation.

Alpha particles come from the nucleus of a radioactive atom. They consist of 2 protons and 2 neutrons; hence have a 2+ charge. A few centimeters of air will stop them. Alpha radiation consists of ...

and that the pulse-height is proportional to the energy of the alpha-particles. It is found in studying the pulses for some beta-radiating substances that there is proportionality between pulse ...

Metastatic melanoma is the most aggressive form of skin cancer. In an effort to achieve targeted therapy for metastatic melanoma, researchers from Japan recently developed a new radioactive drug that ...
