Investigation of iterative deconvolution in 177Lu-SPECT imaging for lesion dosimetry

AIM/INTRODUCTION: Lu-SPECT based tumor dosimetry. MATERIALS/METHODS: Lu]Lu-PSMA-I&T (y = 10) treatment, in order to evaluate its impact on AD estimates. Lesion AD from the original reconstruction (OR) and OR + LRD were estimated using MIM SurePlan™ MRT. The AD from OR, OR + LRD, and OR + RC (phantom-based recovery correction based on volume) were compared. RESULTS: Lu]Lu-PSMA-I&T: y = 56). For OR + LRD and OR + RC an average increase of 22 ± 12% and 57 ± 36% of tumor AD was found. CONCLUSION: Lu-SPECT based dosimetry. Further studies are necessary to investigate the effect of different PVC methods, such as LRD or phantom-based correction factors, on overall uncertainty of lesion ADs.

Abstract

AIM/INTRODUCTION: Lu-SPECT based tumor dosimetry. MATERIALS/METHODS: Lu]Lu-PSMA-I&T (y = 10) treatment, in order to evaluate its impact on AD estimates. Lesion AD from the original reconstruction (OR) and OR + LRD were estimated using MIM SurePlan™ MRT. The AD from OR, OR + LRD, and OR + RC (phantom-based recovery correction based on volume) were compared. RESULTS: Lu]Lu-PSMA-I&T: y = 56). For OR + LRD and OR + RC an average increase of 22 ± 12% and 57 ± 36% of tumor AD was found. CONCLUSION: Lu-SPECT based dosimetry. Further studies are necessary to investigate the effect of different PVC methods, such as LRD or phantom-based correction factors, on overall uncertainty of lesion ADs.
