Abstract
A computerized system and method are provided for determining an optimum amount of radioactivity to administer to a patient, comprising: assuming an activity retention limit; utilizing the activity retention limit to determine a dose rate for a phantom category; utilizing the dose rate for the phantom category to determine the dose rate for a second phantom category; and utilizing the dose rate for a second phantom category to find information regarding the second phantom category. In other embodiments, a computerized system and method are provided for determining an optimum amount of radioactivity to administer to a patient, comprising: obtaining at least one image relating to anatomy of a particular patient; obtaining multiple images regarding radioactivity distribution over time in the particular patient; combining the radioactivity images with the anatomy images; running a Monte Carlo simulation to obtain dose image information; and using the dose image information to obtain BED and/or EUD information.
