Treatment planning in molecular radiotherapy

Zeitschrift für Medizinische Physik, 2013
In molecular radiotherapy a radionuclide or a radioactively labelled pharmaceutical is administered to the patient. Treatment planning therefore comprises the determination of activity to administer. This administered activity should maximize tumour cell sterilization while minimizing normal tissue damage.

Characterizing Parental Concerns About Lasting Impacts of Treatment in Children With B‐Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background B‐acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, and while most children in high‐resource settings are cured, therapy carries risks for long‐term toxicities. Understanding parents’ concerns about these late effects is essential to guide anticipatory support and inform evolving therapeutic approaches ...
