Evolution of Portable Sensors for In-Vivo Dose and Time-Activity Curve Monitoring as Tools for Personalized Dosimetry in Molecular Radiotherapy
2023
Overview
Treatment personalization in Molecular Radiotherapy (MRT) relies on pre- and post-treatment SPECT/ PET-based images and measurements to obtain a patient-specific absorbed dose-rate distribution map and its evolution over time. Unfortunately, the number of time points that are available per patient to investigate individual pharmacokinetics is often reduced by limited patient compliance or SPECT or PET/CT scanner availability for dosimetry in busy departments. The adoption of portable sensors for in-vivo dose monitoring during the entire treatment could improve the assessment of individual biokinetics in MRT and, thus, the treatment personalization. The evolution of portable devices, non-SPECT/PET-based options, already used for monitoring radionuclide activity transit and accumulation during therapy with radionuclides (i.e., MRT or brachytherapy), is presented to identify valuable ones, which combined with conventional nuclear medicine imaging systems could be effective in MRT. External probes, integration dosimeters and active detecting systems were included in the study. The devices and their technology, the range of applications, the features and limitations are discussed. Our overview of the available technologies encourages research and development of portable devices and dedicated algorithms for MRT patient-specific biokinetics study. This would represent a crucial advancement towards personalized treatment in MRT.
