NMD-28

Percent ID per gram

%ID/g = %ID / m. Biodistribution density.

Uptake%ID/g

Governing equation

\%\mathrm{ID/g}=\%\mathrm{ID}/m

where

\%ID: Percent injected dose (%)
m: Organ mass (g)
\%ID/g: Percent ID per gram (%/g)

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-28 — Percent ID per gram) is the form associated with %ID/g. Working symbols: $\%ID$ , $m$ $\rightarrow$ $\%ID/g$ . Preclinical papers quote %ID/g. SUV is the human cousin that folds in body weight.

Purpose

Purpose: compute

\%ID/g

from

\%ID

m

in Nuclear medicine via

\%\mathrm{ID/g}=\%\mathrm{ID}/m

%ID/g = %ID / m. Biodistribution density. 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

\%ID = 4.000\,\mathrm{%}

m = 20.000\,\mathrm{g}

, the governing relation

\%\mathrm{ID/g}=\%\mathrm{ID}/m

yields

\%ID/g = 0.2000\,\mathrm{%/g}

. An organ mass and a percent of the injection. Move a slider: the numbers are this situation, not a canned story.
