Monte Carlo calculation of age-dependent calibration factors for in-vivo monitoring of 131I in thyroid

Résumé

This work summarizes the results of Monte Carlo simulations for several detectors and voxel phantoms representing different age groups that have been performed to investigate the variation of the detection efficiency with distance, age and thyroid volume. Age-dependent correction factors to be applied to the adult calibration factor have been derived and can be used when calibration factors for children are not available. Moreover, the influence of elapsed time since intake has been investigated taking into account the iodine biokinetics.
