| Sumario: | These levels include an activity-based prescription with patient-averaged dosimetry, an activity-based prescription with patient-specific dosimetry and, a dosimetry-based prescription and post-therapy dosimetry verification. In those documents, time of medical physicists for an outpatient therapy of thyrotoxicosis with [ SP 131 sp I]I-NaI, an in-patient therapy of differentiated thyroid carcinoma with [ SP 131 sp I]I-NaI and for a complex therapy, such as therapies with [ SP 131 sp I]I-mIBG, SP 177 sp Lu or SP 90 sp Y, are reported. It was concluded that in the UK, most medical physics groups are well equipped to provide a simple form of dosimetry service, but in most cases refrain to perform dosimetry routinely by "lack of clinical evidence and practice" and that more complex dosimetry will require additional staffing. Whole-body dosimetry using a portable radiation detector in the treatment of neuroblastoma wi... In treatments of neuroblastoma with [ SP 131 sp I]I-mIBG, patients often spend several days in the treatment room for radiation-protection purposes [[29]].
