TOPAS-MC Extension for Nuclear Medicine Applications [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Monte Carlo (MC) techniques are currently deemed the gold standard for internal dosimetry, since the simulations can perform full radiation transport and reach a precision level not attainable by analytical methods. In this study, a custom voxelized particle source was developed for the TOPAS-MC toolkit to be used for internal dosimetry purposes.

Is nuclear medicine really safe?
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2002 In nuclear medicine, radiation absorbed dose estimates calculated by standard models at the whole body or organ are very low. At cellular level, however, the heterogeneity of radionuclide distributions of radiation dose patterns may be significant.

Static Segmentations in Dynamic PET Images: The need for a new method [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The Task Group 211 report of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) reviewed static segmentation techniques in nuclear positronemission tomography (PET) imaging used in nuclear medicine. These methods, when applied to a dynamic image, such as the ones obtained in pharmacokinetic analyses, fail to take into account the dynamic nature ...
