Abstract

Alpha radionuclide therapy has great potential for effective treatment of metastatic with reduced normal tissue complications. (Pre-clinical) research of alpha radiation of therapy does however suffer from a lack of proper tools for spectroscopy, (micro-) dosimetry and radiobiology. An attempt was made to develop and verify methods for the application of fluorescent nuclear track detectors (FNTD) for alpha radiation, to create an affordable and versatile 4 in 1 tool...
