Indium tin oxide (ITO) nanopowders were synthesized by coprecipitation and the sol-gel method to prepare a stable dispersion of ITO nano-colloid for antistatic coating of a display panel. The colloidal dispersions were prepared by attrition process with a vibratory milling apparatus using a suitable dispersant in organic solvent. The ITO coating solution was spin-coated on a glass panel followed by the deposition of partially hydrolyzed alkyl silicate as an over-coat layer. The double-layered coating films were characterized by measuring the sheet resistance and reflectance spectrum for antistatic and antireflective properties.

Purpose: Lymphoscintigraphy and sentinel node biopsy are used in detection of axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer patients, but standardized technique is not established. We compared the results of the injection the morning of surgery (1 day protocol) with the subareolar injection the day before surgery (2 day protocol) with the subareolar injection in patients with breast cancer having lymphoscintigraphy and sentinel node biopsy. Materials and Methods: This study included 349 patients who underwent the breast cancer operation during 2001-2004. One hundred seventy one patients (1 day protocol, 1 hour) was injected 0.8ml of Tc-99m Tin-Colloid (37 MBq) by subareolar injection on the morning of surgery. One hundred seventy eight patients (2 day protocol, 16 hour) was injected 0.8 ml of T c-99m Tin-Colloid (185 MBq) on the afternoon before surgery. Lymphoscintigraphy was performed in sitting position and sentinel node localization was performed by hand-held gamma probe during operation. Result: In the 1 day protocol, 153 cases (89.5%) of the sentinel node were localized by lymphoscintigraphy and 150 cases (87.7%) were localized by gamma probe. In the 2 day protocol, 159 cases (89.3%) were localized by lymphoscintigraphy and 154 cases (86.5%) were localized by gamma probe. There was no significant difference in localization of sentinel node between the 1 day and the 2 day protocol by lymphoscintigraphy and gamma probe (p>0.05, p>0.05). Conclusion: There was no difference the result of localization of sentinel node with subareolar injection between the 1 day and the 2 day protocol in breast cancer patients. Because the 2 day protocol allows the enough time of performing lymphoscintigraphy, it is more useful in localization of sentinel node in breast cancer patients.

Esophageal motility was evaluated from the analysis of 10 consecutive swallows using liquid bolus containing 0.5 mCi of $^{99m}Tc$ tin colloid. We have reviewed our experience of esophageal transit study in the 20 normal volunteers and 55 patients with dysphagia that was not related to mechanical obstruction. The purpose of this study is to measure the esophageal transit in normal subjects and in patients with various esophageal motility disorders. The overall sensitivity and specificity of radionuclide esophageal transit study in detecting esophageal motor abnormality were compared with manometric results as a gold standard, which were 80% and 100% respectively. Radionuclide transit study is a safe, rapid, noninvasive test and suitable as a screening test for esophageal motor disorders.

Hepatic hydrothorax is defined as the presence, in a cirrhotic patient, of a large pleural effusion in the absence of primary pulmonary or cardiac disease. Pleural effusions occur in 5% to 10% of patients with cirrhosis of the liver. The effusions are usually right-sided, but may be bilateral or left-sided. The precise mechanism of fluid accumulation is not clear. We reported a case of right hepatic hydrothorax occuring in the liver cirrhosis with ascites. Diagnosis was confirmed by the intraperitoneal and intrapleural injection of radioisotope $^{99m}Tc-tin$ colloid that demonstrated the one-way transdiaphragmatic flow of fluid from the peritoneal to pleural cavities.

Measurement of gastric emptying rate has been performed by a variety of techniques. Nuclear medicine method is a major advance in the quantitative evaluation of gastric function and also of pharmacologic intervention. Normal gastric emptying rate was measured in 48 healthy volunteers using live chicken liver labeled with $^{99m}Tc-Tin$ Colloid as a solid phase marker. In vitro studies were performed to evaluate the labeling efficiency and stability in hydrochloric acid and in human gastric juice of intracellularly labeled chicken liver. Anterior image counts only were compared with the geometric mean of anterior and posterior counts in 12 healthy volunteers who were studied by both anterior count and posterior count. The results were as follows: 1) The labeling efficiency in gastric juice and hydrochloric acid were $95.5{\pm}1.23%,\;95.7{\pm}1.15%$, respectively. 2) Half gastric emptying time by anterior count only was $126{\pm}21$ minutes 3) Although standard deviation of geometric mean method was smaller than anterior count method, gastric emptying curves from both method were similar. In daily practice, anterior count method may be useful alternative to geometric mean method in evaluation of gastric emptying rate.
