Abstract Background Auger electrons (AEs) are very low energy electrons that are emitted
by radionuclides that decay by electron capture (eg 111 In, 67 Ga, 99m Tc, 195m Pt, 125 I …

Targeted alpha therapy is an oncological treatment, where cytotoxic doses of alpha radiation
are locally delivered to tumor cells, while the surrounding healthy tissue is minimally …

Abstract Targeted Auger Therapy represents great potential for the therapy of diseases
which require a high degree of selectivity on the cellular level (eg for therapy of metastatic …

Radioembolization gains continuous traction as a primarily palliative radiation treatment for
hepatic tumours. A form of nuclear medicine therapy, Yttrium-90 containing microspheres …

Patients undergoing nuclear medicine procedures for cancer therapy are administered
radiopharmaceuticals that emit various types of radiation. Because radiation has differential …

Radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT), with its targeted delivery of cytotoxic ionizing radiation,
demonstrates significant potential for treating a wide spectrum of malignancies, with …

At the tissue level, energy deposition in cells is determined by the microdistribution of alpha-
emitting radionuclides in relation to sensitive target cells. Furthermore, the highly localized …

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of iodinated contrast agents on the
formation of DNA double‐strand breaks in vitro in lymphocytes and to verify these results in …

Our objective was to compare Monte Carlo N-particle (MCNP) self-and cross-doses from
111In to the nucleus of breast cancer cells with doses calculated by reported analytic …

Auger radiopharmaceutical therapy is a promising strategy for micrometastatic disease
given high linear energy transfer and short range in tissues, potentially limiting normal tissue …
