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...
