مستخلص: Unlabelled: The objective of this study was to develop a three-dimensional discrete Fourier transform (3D-DFT) convolution method to perform the dosimetry for 131I-labeled antibodies in soft tissues.
Methods: Mathematical and physical phantoms were used to compare 3D-DFT with Monte Carlo transport (MCT) calculations based on the EGS4 code. The mathematical and physical phantoms consisted of a sphere and a cylinder, respectively, containing uniform and non-uniform activity distributions. Quantitative SPECT reconstruction was carried out using the circular harmonic transform (CHT) algorithm.
Results: The radial dose profile obtained from MCT calculations and the 3D-DFT convolution method for the mathematical phantom were in close agreement. The root mean square error (RMSE) for the two methods was < 0.1%, with a maximum difference < 21%. Results obtained for the physical phantom gave a RMSE < 0.1% and a maximum difference of < 13%; isodose contours were in good agreement. SPECT data for two patients who had undergone 131I radioimmunotherapy (RIT) were used to compare absorbed-dose rates and isodose rate contours with the two methods of calculation. This yielded a RMSE < 0.02% and a maximum difference of < 13%.
Conclusion: Our results showed that the 3D-DFT convolution method compared well with MCT calculations. The 3D-DFT approach is computationally much more efficient and, hence, the method of choice. This method is patient-specific and applicable to the dosimetry of soft-tissue tumors and normal organs. It can be implemented on personal computers.
