DOSIMETRIC STUDY OF BETA-MINUS EMITTER PRASEODYMIUM-142 : APPLICATIONS IN MICROSPHERE BRACHYTHERAPY FOR HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA AND BRACHYTHERAPY FOR OCULAR SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA
A dosimetric study of the beta-minus emitter Praseodymium-142 (¹⁴²Pr) was performed and two main innovative applications of this source in brachytherapy are proposed: microsphere brachytherapy and eye plaque brachytherapy. ¹⁴²Pr (96.3% beta and 3.7% gamma) has recently gained increased attention …
