Absorbed dose kernel and self‐shielding calculations for a novel radiopaque glass microsphere for transarterial radioembolization
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Medical Physics"
DOI: 10.1002/mp.12717
Abstract: PURPOSE Radiopaque microspheres may provide intraprocedural and postprocedural feedback during transarterial radioembolization (TARE). Furthermore, the potential to use higher resolution x-ray imaging techniques as opposed to nuclear medicine imaging suggests that significant improvements in the… read more here.
