Head: Vladimir I. Chernov, MD, PhD, DSc, Professor.
The Radionuclide Imaging Department was established in 2006.
More than 200 scientific papers including chapters "National guidelines for radionuclide imaging" have been published.
The main research areas are:
- Development of scintigraphic methods for cancer detection using 99 mTc-MIBI, 99mTc-TF and 199 TI
- Development of methods for sentinel lymph nodes detection
- Study of feasibility of using radionuclide techniques for assessment of cardiotoxic complications caused by chemotherapy and intraoperative radiation therapy for cancer patients
- Development of new radiotracers for cancer detection
- Study of changes in the level of tumor markers and hormonal homeostasis in patients receiving combined modality treatment for cancer
Equipment:
- The E.CAM180 multidetector gamma-camera (Siemens, Germany, 2006)
- The CliniGamma gamma-counter for in vitro investigations (Sweden, 1988)
- The RIG-12 gamma-counter for in vitro investigations (scientific-production center "Amplituda", Russia, 2008)
- Gamma-detector (scientific-technical center "Radical", Russia, 2007)
- GammaFinder II gamma-probe (Germany, 2006)
