Beta dosimetry for radioimmunotherapy of cancer using labeled antibodies.

Starting with the tabulation of scaled monoenergetic electron dose point kernels F in water, according to the calculations of Berger, we have developed analytic approximations that facilitate the task for convolving F with beta spectra of specific nuclides to derive their dose point kernels J. J is well fitted by a single log-normal distribution, involving three independent parameters. For large atomic numbers, the addition of an exponential …
