Simultaneous 166Ho/99mTc dual-isotope SPECT with Monte Carlo-based downscatter correction for automatic liver dosimetry in radioembolization

Abstract Background Intrahepatic dosimetry is paramount to optimize radioembolization treatment accuracy using radioactive holmium-166 microspheres (166Ho). This requires a practical protocol that combines quantitative imaging of microsphere distribution with automated and robust delineation of the...
