- Abstract
(223)Ra-Chloride (also called Alpharadin®) targets bone metastases with short range alpha particles. In recent years several clinical trials have been carried out showing, in particular, the safety and efficacy of palliation of painful bone metastases in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer using (223)Ra-chloride. The purpose of this work was to provide a comprehensive dosimetric calculation of organ doses after intravenous administration of (223)Ra-chloride according to the present International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) model for radium.
