This paper reviews the ecosystem of GATE, an open-source Monte Carlo toolkit for medical
physics. Based on the shoulders of Geant4, the principal modules (geometry, physics …

The production of reactor-based medical isotopes is fragile, which has meant supply
shortages from time to time. This paper reviews alternative production methods in the form of …

Copper-64 (T1/2= 12.7 h) is a positron and beta-emitting isotope, with decay characteristics
suitable for both positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and radiotherapy of cancer …

Our aim was to report the use of 64Cu and 67Cu as a theranostic pair of radionuclides in
human subjects. An additional aim was to measure whole-organ dosimetry of 64Cu and …

Abstract Purpose Metastatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) overexpressing type 2
somatostatin receptors are the target for peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) …

Developments in artificial intelligence, particularly convolutional neural networks and deep
learning, have the potential for problem solving that has previously confounded human …

Copper (Cu), a crucial trace element in physiological processes, has garnered significant
interest for its involvement in cancer progression and potential therapeutic applications. The …

As an element-equivalent theranostic pair, lead-203 (203Pb, 100% EC, half-life= 51.92 h)
and lead-212 (212Pb, 100% β–, half-life= 10.64 h), through the emission of γ rays and an α …

Precise dosimetry has gained interest for interpreting the response assessments of novel
therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, as well as for improving conventional radiotherapies such …

Radiolanthanides and actinides are aptly suited for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer
via nuclear medicine because they possess unique chemical and physical properties (eg …
