A Dose-rate Method For Prescribing Radioiodine Treatment In Thyroid Cancer Patients With Lung Metastases

UNMET NEED Radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) is an emerging cancer treatment modality in which tumor-targeting molecules are used to deliver radioactive atoms thereby irradiating tumors preferentially over normal organs. Therefore, precision medicine dosimetry is required so that patients are administered the appropriate amount of the RPT for safe...
