We compute semi-classical corrections to the energy of rotating Nambu-Goto strings with masses at the ends, using methods from quantum field theory on curved space-times. In the limit of large angular momentum, we recover the Regge intercept a = 1 + (D-2)/(24) for D dimensional target space previously found for the open and closed string.
