Abstract
Because of expanding therapeutic applications, radionuclide dosimetry is in a stage of reference "man" based system to systems for "patient-specific dosimetry. " Although the challenges for the latter system are substantial, patient-specific radiation dosimetry has greater relevance to treatment planning.Keywords
