Abstract

BACKGROUND: Currently there is an ever increasing interest in Lu-177 targeted radionuclide therapies, which target neuro-endocrine and prostate tumours. For a patient-specific treatment, an individual dosimetry based on SPECT/CT imaging is necessary. The aim of this study is to introduce a dosimetry method, where dose voxel kernels (DVK) are predicted by a neural network.
