Difference between Iobenguane and Positron emission tomography

Iobenguane vs. Positron emission tomography

Iobenguane, also known as metaiodobenzylguanidine or mIBG, or MIBG (tradename Adreview) is a radiopharmaceutical, used in a scintigraphy method called MIBG scan. Positron-emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear medicine functional imaging technique that is used to observe metabolic processes in the body as an aid to the diagnosis of disease.

Similarities between Iobenguane and Positron emission tomography

Iobenguane and Positron emission tomography have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Fluorodopa, Isotopic labeling, Neoplasm, Pheochromocytoma, Radionuclide.

Fluorodopa

Fluorodopa, also known as FDOPA, is a fluorinated form of L-DOPA primarily synthesized as its fluorine-18 isotopologue for use as a radiotracer in positron emission tomography (PET).

Isotopic labeling

Isotopic labeling (or isotopic labelling) is a technique used to track the passage of an isotope (an atom with a detectable variation) through a reaction, metabolic pathway, or cell.

Neoplasm

Neoplasia is a type of abnormal and excessive growth of tissue.

Pheochromocytoma

Pheochromocytoma (PCC) is a neuroendocrine tumor of the medulla of the adrenal glands (originating in the chromaffin cells), or extra-adrenal chromaffin tissue that failed to involute after birth, that secretes high amounts of catecholamines, mostly norepinephrine, plus epinephrine to a lesser extent.

Radionuclide

A radionuclide (radioactive nuclide, radioisotope or radioactive isotope) is an atom that has excess nuclear energy, making it unstable.

Iobenguane and Positron emission tomography Comparison

Iobenguane has 19 relations, while Positron emission tomography has 164. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 2.73% = 5 / (19 + 164).
