ReviewDosimetry in radionuclide therapy: the clinical role of measuring radiation dose.
Radionuclide therapy is a rapidly expanding oncological treatment method. Overwhelmingly, the application of radionuclide therapy in clinical practice relies on fixed or empirical dosing strategies. ⋯ In this Review, we describe the role of dosimetry as it has been applied historically and in modern clinical practice and its potential future applications. We further emphasise areas of future growth and a potential pathway to optimised personalised activity modulation of radionuclide therapy.
