A patient-specific optimally effective radiation dose for administration of a radiopharmaceutical to a patient for treatment of a disease may be established by basing the calculation of the appropriate therapeutic dose on factors such as the desired total body dose, the maximum tolerated dose, the typical clearance profile of the radiopharmaceutical, the patient's mass or maximum effective mass, and the patient-specific residence time of the radiopharmaceutical or an analog in the whole body of the patient. The use of the method allows for treatment of a patient with an appropriate dose which is maximally effective against the disease yet minimally toxic. The determination of a patient-specific therapeutic dose may be assisted by the use of a software program set to the particular parameters of the radiopharmaceutical.

Pour la détermination, en fonction de la spécificité du patient, d'une dose de rayonnement à efficacité optimale préalablement à l'administration thérapeutique d'un produit radiopharmaceutique, on peut se baser sur des facteurs tels que la dose corporelle totale requise, la dose maximum tolérée, le profil de clairance type du produit radiopharmaceutique, la masse du patient ou la masse effective maximum et la durée de résidence, propre au patient, du produit radiopharmaceutique ou analogue dans l'organisme pris dans son ensemble. Grâce à cette méthode, il est possible d'administrer au patient une dose offrant une efficacité maximale pour une toxicité minimale. Pour la détermination de la dose thérapeutique spécifique pour le patient, on pourra utiliser un programme informatique pour le calcul des paramètres propres à la substance radiopharmaceutique considérée.
