Item Open Access A practical method of I-131 thyroid cancer therapy dose optimization using estimated effective renal clearance.(SAGE Open Med Case Rep, 2017) Howard, Brandon A; James, Olga G; Perkins, Jennifer M; Pagnanelli, Robert A; Borges-Neto, Salvador; Reiman, Robert EIn thyroid cancer patients with renal impairment or other complicating factors, it is important to maximize I-131 therapy efficacy while minimizing bone marrow and lung damage. We developed a web-based calculator based on a modified Benua and Leeper method to calculate the maximum I-131 dose to reduce the risk of these toxicities, based on the effective renal clearance of I-123 as measured from two whole-body I-123 scans, performed at 0 and 24 h post-administration.Item Open Access Organ doses from CT localizer radiographs: Development, validation, and application of a Monte Carlo estimation technique(MEDICAL PHYSICS, 2019-11-01) Hoye, Jocelyn; Sharma, Shobhit; Zhang, Yakun; Fu, Wanyi; Ria, Francesco; Kapadia, Anuj; Segars, W Paul; Wilson, Joshua; Samei, Ehsan
