In the Medical Internal Radiation Dosimetry MIRD method the doses absorbed in the target organs are estimated as a function of activities accumulated in a source organ Internal dosimetry codes help standardize dose calculations using recognized models phantoms and dosimetry techniques In nuclear medicine community the aim is to perform calculations to obtain dose estimates for various organs of the body once the kinetics of a radiopharmaceutical agent is established Accurate dosimetry for each investigation is needed to optimize the use of various alternative nuclear medicine techniques and to estimate the radiation exposure and risk from each procedure This paper reviews some basic concepts of internal dosimetry codes key features and difficulties of existing classes for internal radiation dosimetry and modeling codes in nuclear medicine and the phantoms associated with them |
