A radionuclide therapy treatment planning and dose estimation system.
UNLABELLED An object-oriented software system is described for estimating internal emitter absorbed doses using a set of computer modules operating within a personal computer environment. The system is called the Radionuclide Treatment Planning and Absorbed Dose Estimation System (RTDS). It is intended for radioimmunotherapy applications, although other forms of internal emitter therapy may als...
متن کاملEffect of image registration on 3D absorbed dose calculations in 177Lu-DOTATOC peptide receptor radionuclide therapy.
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is an effective MRT (molecular radiotherapy) treatment, which consists of multiple administrations of a radiopharmaceutical labelled with 177Lu or 90Y. Through sequential functional imaging a patient specific 3D dosimetry can be derived. Multiple scans should be previously co-registered to allow accurate absorbed dose calculations. The purpose of thi...
متن کاملSP-0630: Patient absorbed dose in nuclear medicine: Diagnostics and therapy
chamber.The concept of CTDI is still the basis for dosimetry at modern CT scanners, although the assessment of CTDI in phantoms has been the subject of much discussion and many revisions were required since its initial definition. A fundamental revision was for example needed when helical CT was introduced and the concept of pitch had to be taken into account. With the introduction of diagnosti...
متن کاملIncreased absorbed liver dose in Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) correlates with increased sphere-cluster frequency and absorbed dose inhomogeneity
BACKGROUND The higher tolerated mean absorbed dose for selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) with intra-arterially infused (90)Y microspheres compared to external beam therapy is speculated to be caused by absorbed dose inhomogeneity, which allows for liver regeneration. However, the complex liver microanatomy and rheology makes modelling less valuable if the tolerance doses are not based...
متن کاملComparison of Absorbed Dose to Medium and Absorbed Dose to Water for Spine IMRT Plans Using a Commercial Monte Carlo Treatment Planning System
Dose in radiation therapy has been reported as the water-equivalent dose using conventional dose calculation algorithms. The Monte Carlo (MC) algorithm employs characterization of human tissues by elemental composition and mass density. It enables more accurate dose calculation for radiation therapy treatment planning and typically reports absorbed dose to medium. Whether one should use dose to...
