Computed Tomography Imaging to Quantify Iodine Distribution in Iododeoxyuridine- Labeled DNA

Purpose: Treatment planning for x-ray activated Auger electron radiotherapy requires knowledge of the spatial distribution of Auger electron-producing target atoms in DNA; iodine is a candidate atom. Because planning uses computed tomography (CT) data to show anatomy, obtaining the target atoms'...
