Dosimetry for injected/ingested/inhaled/absorbed radioactivity/radiopharmaceuticals.
Factors affecting internal dosimetry
- Route of exposure: inhalation, ingestion, IV injection, absorbtion
- Where did radioactivity go (e.g. thyroid, or excreted through bladder, etc)
- How long did it stay there (i.e. physical and biological half lives)
- What type of radiation at what energies?
- What type of patient (sex, age, etc.)
