A facility for in vivo measurement of lithium
Neurotoxicology
|January 1, 1983
Abstract:
A facility for measurement of Li in-vivo based on measurement of exhaled HT gas has been constructed and tested. Li present in the brain of therapeutically treated individuals could be measured with a dose to the brain of 1 rem. It will be possible to locate grossly the non-uniformity of Li, left-right or front-back sides of the brain, by choosing the proper energy of neutrons. Experiments with larger animals such as sheep are planned.
