چکیده

1. For 79 % of the radiopharmaceuticals, the new calculations gave a lower effective dose per unit administered activity than earlier estimated.” Should be “For 63 % of the radiopharmaceuticals, the new calculations gave a lower effective dose per unit administered activity than earlier estimated.” 2. “As a mean for all radiopharmaceuticals, the effective dose was 25 % lower.” Should be“As a mean for all radiopharmaceuticals, the effective dose was 11 % lower.”

Effective dose to adult patients from 338 radiopharmaceuticals estimated using ICRP biokinetic data, ICRP/ICRU computational reference phantoms and ICRP 2007 tissue weighting factors

BACKGROUND Effective dose represents the potential risk to a population of stochastic effects of ionizing radiation (mainly lethal cancer). In recent years, there have been a number of revisions and updates influencing the way to estimate the effective dose. The aim of this work was to recalculate the effective dose values for the 338 different radiopharmaceuticals previously published by the I...

Internal dosimetry of radioiodine using ICRP reference phantoms and updated biokinetic model

The purpose of this study is to estimate internal dose to human body due to administration of I-131 using new biokinetic model of iodine. In this respect, we used international commission on radiological protection (ICRP) adult reference phantoms. Monte Carlo calculations were performed using MCNPX 2.6 code. The average dose to target organ per disintegration inside source organ, namely S facto...

IDAC-Dose 2.1, an internal dosimetry program for diagnostic nuclear medicine based on the ICRP adult reference voxel phantoms

BACKGROUND To date, the estimated radiation-absorbed dose to organs and tissues in patients undergoing diagnostic examinations in nuclear medicine is derived via calculations based on models of the human body and the biokinetic behaviour of the radiopharmaceutical. An internal dosimetry computer program, IDAC-Dose2.1, was developed based on the International Commission on Radiological Protectio...

Radiation Risk Estimates in Indian Patients Due to Nuclear Cardiac Investigations

Radiation dose estimation due to administration of Tc-MIBI, 99m Tc-Tetrofosmin and TlCl is carried out using MIRD Scheme on anatomical consideration and tissue weighting factors for the Indian adult. The estimated radiation dose from these radiopharmaceuticals is about 12-14 % more as compared to ICRP adult on anatomical consideration alone and is attributed to smaller body weight and smaller o...
