Abstract:

Along with the approval and availability of new radiotheranostic agents, the urge of personalized internal dosimetry for targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) is being recognized worldwide. In order to maximize the tumor dose,keeping thepotential toxicity in critical organs under a safety leveland monitor the treatment effects,the conventional fixed or mass-based injection activity regime is obviously deficit.Patient-specifictreatment planning based on patients’ own kinetics data is desirable,with reference to the common practice of external beam radiation therapy. Quantitative3D imaging methods, especially SPECT/CT and PET/CT, can provide the spatial distribution of TRT theranostic tracers on a voxel level with improved quantitative accuracy. Following quantitative imaging, the use of a streamlined 3D dosimetric software with functions of volume-of-interest segmentation, image registration, time-activity-curve fitting and dose conversion is essential for successful clinical dosimetry practice. Here we present an overview and share our current research experience of two contemporary radiotheranostic applications, i.e., Y-90 microsphere for liver cancer and Lu-177 PSMA therapy for prostate cancer. A self-developed comprehensive and 1-stop internal dosimetry software, BIGDOSE, will also be introduced.
