Abstract
The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the most recent technologic developments in state-of-the-art equipment and tools for dosimetry in radionuclide therapies. This includes, but is not restricted to, calibration methods for imaging systems. In addition, a summary of new developments that consider the influence of small-scale dosimetry and of biologic effects on radionuclide therapies is given. Finally, the current limitations of patient-specific dosimetry such as bone-marrow dosimetry or dosimetry of α-emitters are discussed.Entities:
