Article Synopsis
- This study aims to analyze how I-mIBG (a radiotracer) is distributed in the body and how much radiation it delivers to patients with neural crest tumors, particularly focusing on pediatric models.
- Researchers evaluated 21 adult patients who underwent PET scanning after receiving I-mIBG, measuring radiation exposure to different organs and calculating effective dose coefficients, which indicate the amount of radiation absorbed.
- The results show that adult patients experience significant radiation to the urinary bladder, salivary glands, and liver, with a projected increase in radiation dose for younger pediatric patients, which may aid in determining safe dosage and treatment planning.
