Impact of 90Y PET gradient-based tumor segmentation on voxel-level dosimetry in liver radioembolization

Abstract Background The purpose was to validate 90Y PET gradient-based tumor segmentation in phantoms and to evaluate the impact of the segmentation method on reported tumor absorbed dose (AD) and biological effective dose (BED) in 90Y microsphere radioembolization (RE) patients. A semi-automated gr...
