Some radionuclides have the ability to targetspecific cells without requiring a targeting molecule. Phys. Realization of the full potential of these therapies will require personalized dosimetry - a collaboration between physicians and medical physicists - to optimize radiopharmaceutical therapy for each patient. Medical radiation exposure monitoring is the practice of collecting dose information from radiology equipment and using the data to help identify opportunities to reduce unnecessary dose in medical situations. trailer If you would like to reproduce some or all of this content, see Reuse of NCI Information for guidance about copyright and permissions.

Targeted radionuclide therapy holds promise for personalized treatment of many types of cancer because therapy can betailored to match the molecular properties of a patients specific tumor. Over the last three decades, the number of computed tomography (CT) examinations conducted annually has grown exponentially such that CT imaging currently represents about a quarter of the collective effective radiation dose received by the U.S. population.

The technical name for radiation dose is "absorbed dose"; it is the amount of radiation energy that is deposited in tissue divided by the mass of the tissue. Radiopharmaceutical therapy (also known as molecularradiotherapy or targeted radionuclidetherapy) involves treating a patient with a radioactive material, called a radiopharmaceutical,that targets cancer or other abnormal, diseased cells. If a patient undergoes a dosimetry study prior to radiopharmaceutical therapy, the patient may receive a small dosimetry amount of the therapeutic radiopharmaceutical prior to actual treatment.

For example, blocking a portion of the field does not significantly change the incident output or photon energy fluence in the open portion of the beam (, The above analysis presents one practical difficulty, namely the determination of primary dose in a phantom that excludes both the collimator and phantom scatter.
