As a preventative measure for atrisk patients, dosimetry using four SPECT/CT scans is performed with the first cycle of Lu177 therapy. In this work, seven Lu-177 PSMA-617 dosimetry cases from patients treated at Oregon Health & Science University with SPECT scans taken at 4 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours post-injection were retrospectively analyzed for how omitting each of the scans in performing dosimetry would affect reported absorbed doses to the kidneys, liver, lungs, parotid glands, and tumor.}, number = {ETD}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/bpxhc43397}, recid = {43397}, address = {2024-06-14}, }
