Abstract: The waveform conform control circuit includes a waveform generator, an amplitude adjustment device and an offset device. The waveform generator produces a current waveform. The amplitude adjustment device receives amplitudes amplitude data and produces a predetermined scale factor which is applied to the basic current waveform to produce a scaled current waveform. The offset device is a digital to analog converter for receiving offset data and producing a predetermined scale value that is added to the scaled waveform to produce a final current waveform. A method a digitally generated waveform is also disclosed. An offset circuit using current steering digital to analog and a current mirror is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to diagnostic imaging agents for in vivo imaging. The imaging agents comprise a synthetic caspase-3 inhibitor labelled with an imaging moiety suitable for diagnostic imaging in vivo. The invention also provides pharmaceutical and radiopharmaceutical compositions comprising the imaging agents, together with kits for the preparation of the radiopharmaceuticals. Also described are chelator conjugates of the caspase-3 inhibitor, which are suitable for the preparation of imaging agents comprising a radioactive or paramagnetic metal ion. The imaging agents are useful for the diagnostic imaging and or therapy monitoring in vivo of various disease states where caspase-3 is involved.
