About this title

Synopsis

This report provides a compendium of current information relating to radiation dose to patients, including biokinetic models, biokinetic data, dose coefficients for organ and tissue absorbed doses, and effective dose for major radiopharmaceuticals based on ICRP radiation protection guidance. These data were compiled from ICRP Publications 53, 80, and 106 and related amendments and corrections. This report also includes new information for 82Rb-chloride, iodide (123I, 124I, 125I, and 131I) and 123I labelled 2ß-carbomethoxy 3ß-(4-iodophenyl)-N-(3-fluoropropyl) nortropane (FPCIT). The data presented in this report are intended for diagnostic nuclear medicine and not for therapeutic applications.
