  • Publication number: 20100133440
    Abstract: This invention relates to a system for determining a biodistribution of radioactive agents in a subject. According to the invention, a detector system comprising two or more detectors arranged to be attached to the subject at localized areas is used for detecting the radiation emitted from the imaging agents at localized tissues within the subject. The measuring results in separate radiation data sets associated to the tissues. The detectors are further being arranged to adapt the measuring rate to the pharmacokinetic behavior of the tissues in order to capture all relevant data points. A processor then uses the data sets for determining the radioactivity within each respective tissue and based thereon the biodistribution within the subject.

  • Publication number: 20100081857
    Abstract: A system and method for planning a necrosis-inducing therapy and subsequent administration of a necrosis-targeting agent are described. The system takes into account the effect of necrosis-induction therapy as a basis for the biodistribution estimate of the necrosis-targeting agent. This interaction between the different calculation steps is essential for an accurate planning result. A computer-readable medium and use are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20090292481
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, system, computer-readable medium and use for individual patient therapy planning of diseases such as cancer for different therapy modalities, such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy is provided. A new aspect of the invention is that the degree of bone marrow depression of the patient is related to the count of immature blood platelets, which are measured before each treatment. Some embodiments of the invention provide an advantage allowing reducing the level of uncertainty in the prediction of the risk of bone marrow depression, and thus enabling to safely improve the therapy effect by an increase of the radiation dosage and/or chemical dosage to the individual patient while the risk for bone marrow depression is minimized.
