SOLLID - a single centre study to develop methods to investigate the effects of low radiation doses within nuclear medicine, to enable multicentre epidemiological investigations.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2021-03-01)
There is continuing debate concerning the risks of secondary malignancies from low levels of radiation exposure. The current model used for radiation protection is predicated on the assumption that even very low levels of ...
EANM dosimetry committee series on standard operational procedures: a unified methodology for 99mTc-MAA pre- and 90Y peri-therapy dosimetry in liver radioembolization with 90Y microspheres.
(SPRINGER, 2021-11-12)
The aim of this standard operational procedure is to standardize the methodology employed for the evaluation of pre- and post-treatment absorbed dose calculations in 90Y microsphere liver radioembolization. Basic assumptions ...
A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Relationship Between the Radiation Absorbed Dose to the Thyroid and Response in Patients Treated with Radioiodine for Graves' Disease.
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2021-12-01)
Background: Patients with Graves' disease are commonly treated with radioiodine. There remains controversy over whether the aim of treatment should be to achieve euthyroidism or hypothyroidism, and whether treatments should ...
Comparison of 90Y SIRT predicted and delivered absorbed doses using a PSF conversion method.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2021-07-30)
PURPOSE: The aims of this study were to develop and apply a method to correct for the differences in partial volume effects of pre-therapy Technetium-99 m (99mTc)-MAA SPECT and post-therapy Yttrium-90 (90Y) bremsstrahlung ...
Adjustment of the iodine ICRP population pharmacokinetic model for the use in thyroid cancer patients after thyroidectomy.
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2021-11-11)
Biokinetic models developed for healthy humans are not appropriate to describe biokinetics in thyroid cancer patients following thyroidectomy. The aim of this study was to adjust the population model for iodine proposed ...
The internal dosimetry user group position statement on molecular radiotherapy.
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2021-10-01)
The Internal Dosimetry User Group (IDUG) is an independent, non-profit group of medical professionals dedicated to the promotion of dosimetry in molecular radiotherapy (www.IDUG.org.uk). The Ionising Radiation (Medical ...
