Dose Constraints in Radiopharmaceutical Therapy vs. External Beam Radiotherapy - Challenges and Considerations

Molecular Imaging & Therapy via YouTube

Overview

Explore the differences between dose constraints in External Beam Radiotherapy (EBRT) and Radiopharmaceutical Therapy (RPT) in this 55-minute invited talk by Dr. Tahir Yusufaly, Faculty Member at Johns Hopkins University Department of Radiology. Delve into the complexities of dose distribution, radiobiology, and efforts to develop universal models for Biologically Effective Dose (BED) and Normal Tissue Complication Probability (NTCP). Gain insights into the emerging field of computational nuclear oncology and its potential impact on future cancer treatments.
