Open AccessLung Mean Dose Prediction in Transarterial Radioembolization (TARE): Superiority of [166Ho]-Scout Over [99mTc]MAA in a Prospective Cohort Study
Radiation pneumonitis is a serious complication of radioembolization. In holmium-166 ([166Ho]) radioembolization, the lung mean dose (LMD) can be estimated (eLMD) using a scout dose with either technetium-99 m-ma...

Open AccessThe superior predictive value of 166Ho-scout compared with 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin prior to 166Ho-microspheres radioembolization in patients with liver metastases
As an alternative to technetium-99m-macroaggregated albumin (99mTc-MAA), a scout dose of holmium-166 (166Ho) microspheres can be used prior to 166Ho-radioembolization. The use of identical particles for pre-treat...
