Competency information
Details
Actively participate in calculating absorbed radiation doses to target and non-target tissues for therapy protocols guided by patient-specific dosimetry
Considerations
- The principles of internal radiation dosimetry for determining patient specific organ/whole body and tumour radiation doses
- The importance of tumour (target) dose and critical normal organ/whole body doses in the planning and management of patient- specific radionuclide therapies
- Protocols for the patient-specific determination of tumour and/or normal organ/whole body radiation dose
