Electron Absorbed Fractions and S Factors for Intermediate Size Target Volumes: Comparison of Analytic Calculations and Monte Carlo Simulations

Electron Absorbed Fractions and S Factors for Intermediate Size Target Volumes: Comparison of Analytic Calculations and Monte Carlo Simulations

The absorbed fraction and the S factor represent fundamental quantities in MIRD-based dosimetry of radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT). Although Monte Carlo (MC) simulations represent the gold standard in RPT dosimetry, dose point kernels (DPK) obtained from analytic range–energy relations offer a mor...
