Resumen:
The importance of targeted radionuclide therapy is steadily increasing, and its prospective uses now include minimal residual disease. Besides lutetium-177, three other medium-energy beta- emitters, copper-67, scandium-47 and terbium-161, are promising candidates for arming novel radiopharmaceuticals. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of these isotopes at irradiating small tumor volumes.
