The work is carried out in conjunction with a local hospital and the applications are clinical in nature. These measures are being used to investigate the nature of order in the data as HRV changes. Realistic generation terms lead to lobular structure. Simulations in multidimensions are being performed. Radioactive isotopes of technetium, yttrium, indium, and samarium offer applications in radioscintography and radiotherapy.
Gadolinium has applications in magnetic resonance imaging and neutron capture therapy.
Folic acid was attached to these polymers. They specifically bind to tumor cells that express the high affinity folate receptor. We are using these polymers to diagnose and treat tumors that express this receptor in vivo. Tumors of epithelial origin express this receptor.
