In radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT), a radionuclide is systemically or locally delivered with
the goal of targeting and delivering radiation to cancer cells while minimizing radiation …

Single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) has
emerged during the past decade as a means of correlating anatomical information from CT …

In internal radionuclide therapy, a growing interest in voxel-level estimates of tissue-
