Dose Deposits from ⁹⁰Y, ¹⁷⁷Lu, ¹¹¹In, and ¹⁶¹Tb in Micrometastases of Various Sizes: Implications for Radiopharmaceutical Therapy

Abstract

(177)Lu, (111)In, and (161)Tb might be more appropriate than (90)Y for treating minimal residual disease. (161)Tb is a promising radionuclide because it combines the advantages of a medium-energy β(-) emission with those of Auger electrons and emits fewer photons than (111)In.
