In peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) of patients with neuroendocrine neoplasias (NENs), intratherapeutic dosimetry is mandatory for organs at risk (e.g. kidneys) and tumours. We evaluated commercial dosimetry software (Dosimetry Toolkit) using varying imaging scenarios, based on planar and/or tomographic data, regarding the differences in calculated organ/tumour doses and the use for...

BACKGROUND Technetium-99m-hydrazinonicotinamide-Tyr3-octreotide (99mTc-HYNIC-TOC) is recognized as a promising radiopharmaceutical for diagnosing neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). However, 99mTc-HYNIC-TOC dosimetry has been investigated only for adults. As pediatric radionuclide therapies become increasingly common, similar dosimetric studies for children are urgently needed. The aim of this study ...

Relevance: The article deals with modern problems in the field of ensuring quality services provided on linear accelerators from point view regulatory framework, as well frequency control procedures. scientific novelty lies elaborating a accelerator program detailed procedure descriptions and testing recommendations.
 study aimed to – develop test set simple methods for controlling acceler...

Though adjuvant radiotherapy has an established role in the treatment of carcinoma breast, there is concern regarding irradiation to heart and lung, more on left sided disease. Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) modulates intensity radiation beams with better accuracy, sparing surrounding normal organs. But it increases integral dose healthy tissues compared 3-Dimensional Conformal (3...

The first results from a clinical study for Temoporfin-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) of low-grade (T1c) primary prostate cancer using online dosimetry are presented. Dosimetric feedback in real time was applied, for the first time to our knowledge, in interstitial photodynamic therapy. The dosimetry software IDOSE provided dose plans, including optical fiber positions and light doses base...

BACKGROUND Integrin-targeting radiopharmaceuticals have potential broad applications, spanning from cancer theranostics to cardiovascular diseases. We have previously reported preclinical dosimetry results of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGDyK in mice. This study presents the first human dosimetry of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGDyK in the five consecutive patients included in a clinical imaging protocol of carotid atheroscle...

amount of 177Lu for every cycle? Although this is now the standard approach, it is reasonable to ask whether advantages might accrue to administering different amounts of radioactivity at different treatment cycles. Kulkarni et al. from the Zentralklinik Bad Berka (Germany) reported on “Serial dosimetry during 177Lu-PSMA radioligand therapy in the same patient” [316]. The authors performed dosi...
