Lecture brief

Historical brief

MIRD schema, in-vivo decay, uptake fractions and PET coincidence turned unsealed sources into organ dose. The sheets compute activity, residence and well-counter geometry. This sheet (NMD-36 — %ID/g snapshot) is the form associated with uptake. Working symbols: $C$ , $V$ , $A_0$ $\rightarrow$ $%ID$ . Biodistribution.

Purpose

Purpose: compute

%ID

in Nuclear medicine via

\\%\\mathrm{ID}/g=100\\,C V/A_0

Biodistribution. Use it when a real nuclear medicine question must be answered in SI before a code check.

Live realistic example

In symbols

Live case. Given

C = 50.000\,\mathrm{kBq/ml}

V = 2.000\,\mathrm{ml}

A_0 = 200.000\,\mathrm{MBq}

, the governing relation

\\%\\mathrm{ID}/g=100\\,C V/A_0

yields

%ID = 0.050\,\mathrm{%}

. Biodistribution. Move a slider: the numbers are this situation, not a canned story.
