Whole-Body Micro-Yucatan Minipig Computational Phantoms for Preclinical Radiopharmaceutical Dosimetry
In preclinical studies, animal models are widely used to estimate absorbed doses following the administration of radiopharmaceuticals. Mice are the most commonly used models; however, their small body size can lead to biased dose estimates when translating mo...
