Calculation of absorbed dose due to the 90Y-DOTATOC peptide receptor radionuclide therapy by MCNP5/X
Strong beta emitters, like 90Y, 177Lu labelled peptide, are used for treatment of neuroendocrine tumours where there is a good expression of somatostatin receptors. In this work, MCNP5/X computer software and ORNL human phantoms were used to calculate absorbed dose due to 90Y labelled DOTATOC in the...
