Abstract: PURPOSE There are no published data on organ doses following intra-hepatic-arterial administration of 99m Tc-macroaggregated-albumin (IHA 99m Tc-MAA) routinely used in 90 Y-radioembolization-treatment planning to assess intra- and extra-hepatic depositions and calculate lung-shunt-fraction (LSF). We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00247-022-05324-8
Abstract: Chest radiography is the most frequent X-ray examination performed in the neonatal period. However, commonly used dosimetric entities do not describe the radiation risk sufficiently. The aim of this study was to investigate selected organ… read more here.
