Application of the cross-organ beta dose method for tissue dosimetry in tumor-bearing mice treated with a90y-labeled immunoconjugate

Abstract

The new dosimetric model, which accounts more accurately for self-organ absorbed and cross-organ beta dose fraction, allows the calculation of tumor and organ doses in the murine model. Accurate estimation of radiation doses to tumor and critical organs, such as the marrow, spleen and kidneys, is important in determining the efficacy and toxicity of radioimmunotherapy regimens in animals and in subsequent human applications.
