Radiopharmaceuticals based on Lu-177 are finding increasing use in radiometabolic therapy. The ordinary practice requires radiation monitoring of the patient. To this end, detectors need to be calibrated in the geometry used and for the radioisotope used. This work presents an experimental investigation coupled with Monte Carlo calculations. This procedure yielded a calibration factor of practical use in everyday clinical practice.

Abstract

Radiopharmaceuticals based on Lu-177 are finding increasing use in radiometabolic therapy. The ordinary practice requires radiation monitoring of the patient. To this end, detectors need to be calibrated in the geometry used and for the radioisotope used. This work presents an experimental investigation coupled with Monte Carlo calculations. This procedure yielded a calibration factor of practical use in everyday clinical practice.
