Assessment of radiation absorbed dose to internal organs of the body from the intake of
radionuclides, or in the medical setting through the injection of radiopharmaceuticals, is …

This paper describes in detail the implementation of Geant4 Livermore electromagnetic
physics models based on the EPICS2017 database for the low energy transport of photons …

Radiation protection applications often require the creation of a large number of precise
simulations of radiation-human body interactions. Our research is focused on creating …

Abstract Purpose Internal Bremsstrahlung (IB) is a process accompanying β-decay but
neglected in Voxel S-Values (VSVs) calculation. Aims of this work were to calculate, through …

Dosimetry at the cellular level has outperformed macrodosimetry in terms of agreement with
toxicity effects in clinical studies. This fact has encouraged dosimetry studies aiming to …

Dosimetric calculations, whether for radiation protection or nuclear medicine applications,
are greatly influenced by the use of computational models of humans, called …

Many research groups have studied nuclear medicine image quantification to improve its
accuracy in dose estimation. This work aims to evaluate the influence of the source …

This thesis investigates the feasibility of using clinical data to derive bespoke S-values for
internal radionuclide dosimetry of 18 F-FDG PET-CT examinations, and the effect of patient …
