A dosimetry evaluation of 90y-stent implantation in intracoronary radiation treatment
Ionizing particles have been used for the treatment of atherosclerosis. Internal irradiation is commonly carried out by means of several methods (catheter-based systems, radioactive stents or balloons) to reduce the probability of restenosis. 90Y, due to some of its characteristics, is an approp...
