A radioactive SPECT tracer has a radioactive half-life of 6 hours. If it takes 12 hours...
Nuclear imaging tracers have a radioactive half life that depends on the radioisotope. For example, the half-life of 18F is 110 minutes. However, the tracer is also eliminated from the body with a biological half life that depends on the tracer molecule. For example, a cardiac imaging agent called Cardiolite is eliminated from the body with a half life of 6 hours. The effective half life of a nuclear imaging agent is calculated as 1/teff 1/trad 1/tbio, where teff is...
(1) Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG) is a radioactive tracer (half life of 1.83 hours) administered to patients who are undergoing PET imaging. This imaging modality, which creates images by detecting the positrons that are emitted when the fluorine-18 undergoes 8+ decay, permits physicians to monitor the metabolism of glucose in the body (a) Write down the decay chain for fluorine-18 when it undergoes β+ decay (b) A patient is given a dose of 18FDG prior to a PET scan to monitor...
8. Fermium-253 has a half-life of 0.334 seconds. A radioactive sample is considered to be completely decayed after 10 half-lives. How much time will elapse for this sample to be considered gone? 9. 100.0 grams of an isotope with a half-life of 36.0 hours is present initially. How ma time will have elapsed when 5.00 grams remains? 131 (half-life = 8.040 days) to decay to 10. How long will it take for a 40.0 gram sample of 1-131 (half-life =...
