The gamma camera, along with SPECT and PET scanners, is one of the main imaging technologies in nuclear medicine. A collimator is typically constructed from tungsten to provide high absorption of gamma photon energies. It has a hole or holes for imaging. Gamma rays from a radioactive source within the body are emitted in all directions, while the photons required constructing an image travel through the hole. A scintillator is the most common material used to convert the high energy of gamma radiation into a lowenergy optical photon. These detectors are one of the primary secrets to radio-diagnosis in nuclear medicine. The photomultiplier tube (PMT) is a versatile device with extraordinarily highly sensitivity and response. A typical photomultiplier tube contains a photo emissive cathode (photocathode), focusing electrodes, an electron multiplier, and an electron collector (anode). Conclusion: In the medical imaging area, everyone works to improve the resolution, sensitivity, and size of their devices so that patients can be treated better and diagnoses can be made more accurately. Also, the results of this study suggest that HGC could be a potential way to give better support during surgery.
Abstract
The aim of the research is to clarify the requirements of the qualification of the external auditor in Iraq and the extent of their impact on the quality of the professional performance of the audit process. The research was based on analyzing the results of the questionnaire prepared for the impact of qualifications on the quality of professional performance. The researcher has reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which is that a highly qualified and unethical auditor has a greater negative impact on the quality of professional performance than those with low qualifications. The most important recommendations of the research were the need to pay

Show MoreThe legislators in (France, Egypt and Syria) set controls for filing an administrative lawsuit, including the signature of the lawsuit petition by a lawyer accepted before the court, and the lawyer is committed to performing his work in accordance with the conditions of the State Council and the practice of the legal profession. And if the goal of the legislator is to achieve the public and private interest represented in observing the law and assisting the plaintiff legally, then this condition sometimes leads to individuals refraining from resorting to the judiciary because of the financial cost of registration fees and lawyers, which prompted the legislator, especially the French, to exempt several lawsuits from this condition, includ

These include marked progress in understanding the molecular biology of normal and neoplastic plasma cells and recent advances in molecular genetics techniques. Among molecular markers, p-53 cancer suppressor gene have been widely studied.
Aim: is to correlate p-53 protein expression in multiple myeloma, as examined by immunohistochemical method, with some pathological and clinical parameters (Clinical stage and cytological grade).
Patients and methods: This is a retrospective study; whereby archival paraffin-embedded BM tissue blocks along with the clinical and hematological records of fifty patients (
Banking institutions are considered one of development foundations,and they also performe active role in supporting national economey and itsinstitutions. Banks became diversed in their activities that specialized Banksbecame one of the constituents of developing work in any activity, especiallyin investiment sector .In view of the importance of insurance sector and thenecessity of developing its divices and its working instituments, studyinginsurance Banking reality became a necessity, because insurance Companies inIraq are suffering of weakness in the level of insurance service, in addition tothe existence of a problem in the relationship between Banks network andinsurance industry.So this research aims to define insurance reality; the
... Show MoreThis research investigates the engagement of the Iraqi audience with ethnographic programs and their impact on knowledge enhancement and intellectual perspectives. A questionnaire consisting of closed-ended questions was designed and administered to a purposive sample of 400 participants who exclusively follow ethnographic programs and documentary channels. The data were transcribed and subjected to statistical analysis using the SPSS software to ensure reliability and test hypotheses. The findings revealed that Al Jazeera Documentary Channel had the highest viewership percentage among respondents for ethnographic programs, while DW (Deutsche Welle) had the lowest viewership percentage. This suggests that Al Jazee

It usually affects tissues involved in milk production (Ductal and lobular tissues). It is the most common malignancy in women and it remains one of the greatest health threats facing women around the world as we enter the 21st century.
Objectives: To estimate the role of IL-10 in the progression of invasive ductal carcinoma.
Patients and Method: Seventy three metastatic invasive ductal carcinoma Iraqi women were admitted to Nuclear Medicine Hospital in Baghdad and 15 samples of apparently healthy women were involved as a control. The blood samples (2 mL) were drown from all studied cases in order to be used for measur
Background: Wilms’ tumor 1 is a tumor suppressor gene. The gene is located in chromosome 11p13. And its expression was found in many solid tumors (including ovarian tumor) and also expressed in hematologic malignancies, Recent studies found that WT1 to be involved in angiogenesis.
Objectives: To evaluate the expression of WT1 in surface epithelial ovarian tumorand study the possibility of using WT1 as replacement of both;ovarian tumor marker CA125 and a endothelial cell phenotypic marker CD34.
Patients and methods: This is a study of a retrospective ( cross sectional ) of sixty cases with total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo - oopherectomy collected from department of Histopathology – Teaching Laboratories / Medi

Early diagnosis and proper treatment is important in decreasing the morbidity. Multiple immunesupressor agents used and according to the histopathology stage of the disease, still the proper drug used and the duration and dose required not settled. Rituximab which is monoclonal antibody that reacts against CD20 antigen on lymphocytes that cause B cells depletion is recently introduced in treatment of lupus nephritis .
