Description/Abstract:
GALLIUM-67 FOR TUMOR SCANNING...STAFF MEMBERS OF THE ULTRASTRUCTURAL A NATOMY LABORATORT AT THE MEDICAL DIVISION OF OAK RIDGE ASSOCIATED UNIV ERSITIES ARE SHOWN STUDYING AN ELECTRON MICROSCOPE AUTORADIOGRAPH. TH E ELECTRON MICROSCOPE (AT LEFT) IS A VALUABLE TOOL IN THE SEARCH FOR T HE BIOLOGICAL MECHANISM THAT UNDERLIES THE INTERESTING UPTAKE OF CARRI ER-FREE GALLIUM-67 IN BOTH HUMAN AND ANIMAL TUMORS. IT HAS BEEN DEMON STRATED BY ELECTRON MICROSCOPE AUTORADIOGRAPHY THAT THE TRACER IS ASSO CIATED WITH ELECTRON-DENSE CYTOPLASMIC INCLUSIONS WHICH ARE BELIEVED T O BE LYZONSOMES OR MICROBODIES.
