PET/CT, theranostics and artificial intelligence - Geoff Currie
zhlédnutí 503Před 3 lety
This is the art based analogy of Prof David Townsend, inventor of PET/CT to explain the role and impact of hybridised PET/CT. It is a fantastic analogy but recently I wondered whether it could be expanded in some way to consider the role of artificial intelligence. So this starts with PET/CT, adds theranostics, and then finishes with AI. Hopefully I respected the original by Prof Townsend while...

    I understand more that I even have about gamma cameras, thank you! Two questions occur to me: (1) When the gamma "ray" enters the crystal, how many UV photons are produced? It would seem to me that the location logic would only work is a statistically significant number of photos resulted, illuminating multiple each photomultiplier tube with a quantity of light (i.e., number of photons) inversely correlated with the distance from the collimator channel to the tube. (2) Another potential problem is the occurrence of multiple events in close time proximity. Doesn't the photomultiplier tube have a recovery time between detections? If two gamma events occur at roughly the same time, the array of PM tubes would see light from both events. Does the location logic have the ability to determine that "this pattern of PM amplitudes could only occur if two events, at location x1,y1 and x2,y2, were simultaneous? Thanks again for the video! (I just had a close encounter with a gamma camera, as a patient, as was curious as to how they worked.)

      It depends on the procedure being performed. for something like a myocardial perfusion scan, the dose tends to be higher than a thyroid scan. and it depends on what type of dose you are talking about and to what tissue. But diagnostic CT is typically high dose (but safe) and nuclear medicine much lower for the same organ imaging.

    QUOTE - Tc-99m may soon stop being so widely needed as other technologies evolve. “When the technetium market dies, technology that is specific for technetium production dies because it can’t be used for anything else, whereas a cyclotron can produce a variety of different isotopes for diagnostic imaging that are used in medicine,” McEwan said. from www.radiologybusiness.com/topics/technology-management/researchers-canada-announce-tc-99m-breakthrough

    • @geoffcurrie968
      @geoffcurrie968 Před 6 lety

      Complete nonsense. The reactor does more than produce radionuclides (silicon doping for wind turbines for example) and produces some very important other radionuclides for diagnosis and therapy (177Lu for cancer therapy and 131I are examples). But uninformed parties regularly (for 30 years) predict the end of 99mTc as other thing emerge. But if anyone has passed year 3 maths they will know that a decrease in % (so 99mTc has dropped from 90% of nuc med studies to 80-85% depending on country) does not mean a decrease in actual numbers. Indeed, 99mTc studies have increased annually in Australia (latest figures 2% growth) and the % decrease is associated with more rapid growth in PET and therapy applications. So 99mTc use is growing!!! And the IAEA report that is 10% annually globally. This represents slower growth in established economies but rapid growth in 99mTc use in developing economies. Bangladesh for example has 160 million people serviced by less nuc med depts. than Sydney. Over coming decades that will grow significantly more than we are growing. But 99mTc use is growing in actual numbers. Decreases in Canada is simply the lack of availability since the reactor closed and cyclotrons can't meet the demand. Its artificial. And why Canada has now announced it will go back to reactor production using the CANDU power reactor!

    • @geoffcurrie968
      @geoffcurrie968 Před 6 lety

      Actually there is a global shortage that has lasted some 15 years and Australia has been insulated from that even during scheduled maintenance. We have had a few brief periods (including at the moment) where an issue has resulted in importation. At the moment we are in an 8 week period where the reactor is still producing product but the processing facility has had a breakdown. So we are shipping Aussie activity overseas for handling and then returning it to Australia. I do mention this and in fact point out that our experience with the need for importing at times like this highlight the dire circumstances that leaves Australia in. While geographic isolation helps us at times, the short half life of imported products means that we face cost pressures, increased production, increased waste and unreliable transport. SO it reinforces the need for the ANSTO reactor.

  • @BrettBurnardStokes

    • @geoffcurrie968
      @geoffcurrie968 Před 6 lety

      The article refers to cyclotron production of PET based radionuclides not the 85% of nuclear medicine procedures done with 88mTc or other diagnostic and therapeutic nuclides produced in the reactor. Cyclotrons do have waste but they do not produce fission reactions but they are limited in capability. Indeed, many cyclotron products are imported because the small cyclotrons in Australia are not big enough to produce many useful radionuclides. So while the ANSTO reactor is in Sydney and that is where the waste is produced, QLD and every other state of Australia benefit from that waste production. So the QLD ABC article was NOT trying to say ANSTO or reactors are unnecessary but rather celebrate a new technology that accounts for about 10% of nuclear medicine procedures done in Australia.

  • @jarofranta153
    @jarofranta153 Před 6 lety

    Excellent presentation. The points about the cyclotron option versus reactor option in Canada is spot on. As someone who retired from AECL seven years ago, and who sometimes worked on projects for the NRU reactor that produced Mo99 for medicine, I can certainly confirm everything you say about the situation in Canada. As you say, the Canadian government invested many millions of dollars into the cyclotron option. That was great for research, especially for the TRIUMF facility in British Columbia. Indeed, that new financing is what these researchers were after in the first place. But it did nothing to address the issue nationwide, following the shutdown of the old NRU reactor. That is why there are plans underway now to start Mo99 production in a CANDU reactor power plant (some of which have been used to produce Cobalt-60 for many years). Just for reference - useful for making comparisons with production rates - here is a nice table that lists Tc99m dosages for different diagnostic procedures, along with approximate radiation doses (note at bottom). facebook.com/493843777362196/photos/p.1807169376029623/1807169376029623/
