Kinetic modeling of a radiotracer in an organ II.
This option has been developed mainly for the nuclear medicine doctors.
Calculations play a very important role in the nuclear medicine therapy,
however, the decision about the radiopharmaceutical apllied and its dose must be made by
the Doctor taking care of the Patient.
The Doctor makes the decision not only based on mathematical calculations, but also on his own knowledge and experience,
and takes also the full responsibility.
Calculation of kinetic parameters of a radiotracer, whose activity in a target organ follows the equation:
Ut = F (2-t/T(1/2)ef - 2-t/T(1/2)a) |
Ut - radiotracer uptake in the organ in time t
T(1/2)ef - effective half-time
T(1/2)a - half-time of the influx of the radiotracer into the organ
F - proportionality factorStep one
Enter the measure values (times and uptakes) and the range, in which the function is to be examined:
