Treatment planning and dosimetry in 90Y-SIRT rely on accurate determination of perfused volumes (PV). Bremsstrahlung 90Y-SPECT imaging remains limited, with poor resolution and erroneous counts throughout the imaging volume. “Ground truth” identification of t...
LSF derived from MAA-based nuclear medicine imaging is a standard component of 90Y-SIRT treatment-planning. Elimination of MAA-based LSF determination has been suggested in select cases to streamline 90Y-SIRT workflows and avoid the requirement of separate pl...
Efforts to improve fluoroscopically-guided interventions (FGIs) and outcomes are partially hindered by the intrinsic variability of these procedures. Anatomic localization of fluoroscopic images can begin to address these needs, but manual image labeling is t...
Diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) and achievable doses (ADs) have been established in the United States for pediatric energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT) based on ACR Dose Index Registry data. However, these benchmarks may not be directly applicable to p...
