New approach for calculating radiation dosimetry allows for individualized therapy
(Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging) Researchers have developed a simplified process that could enhance personalization of cancer therapy based on a single nuclear medicine scan. The novel method uses a follow-up single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) scan to obtain reliable radiation dose estimates to tumors and at-risk organs. The study is published in The Journal of Nuclear Medicine. (Source: EurekAlert! - Cancer)
