Dosimetry of iodine-123-epidepride: a dopamine D2 receptor ligand.

Abstract

By emptying the gallbladder and urinary bladder, the lower large intestine becomes the critical organ, 0.102 mGy/MBq (0.38 rad/mCi) followed by the upper large intestine, 0.092 mGy/MBq (0.34 rad/mCi). The effective dose equivalent is 0.025 mSv/MBq (0.092 rem/mCi).
