Radiopharmaceutical Therapy (RPT) is fast becoming a mainstream modality with the development and approval of new emitters and conjugates. Professionals from the fields of radiation oncology and nuclear medicine are expressing interest in learning the fundamentals of implementing radiopharmaceutical therapy in their clinics. While multiple efforts are underway to add more radiopharmaceutical-specific material to training programs, retrospective training of medical physicists in this discipline is a gigantic unmet need. To meet this need, the AAPM held a comprehensive summer school program in Minneapolis in 2023 on radiopharmaceutical therapy and dosimetry.
These summer school proceedings cover all aspects of RPT, from a comprehensive list of currently approved radiopharmaceuticals and their uses to post-treatment patient release criteria. The program placed a special emphasis on the state of the art in voxelized and organ-level dosimetry for RPT. Presenters gave a description of how RPT could adopt patient-specific, dosimetry-based treatment planning in the near future instead of relying upon a one-size-fits-all dosing approach.
Many of the world's leading authorities in RPT have contributed chapters for this book. Their insights will be referred to and valued for years to come.
Robert Hobbs is an associate professor and medical physicist in the department of radiation oncology at Johns Hopkins and is the chair of the AAPM radiopharmaceutical therapy subcommittee. His research interests include alpha-particle dosimetry and combination therapies with radiopharmaceutical therapy and external beam. Joseph O'Donoghue is an attending physicist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. His work focuses on the use of quantitative analysis to study radiation dosimetry, biological response assessment, and clinical utility of radiolabeled molecules for imaging and therapy of cancer. Jessica Clements is an imaging medical physicist and the radiation safety officer at The University of Vermont Medical Center. She volunteers with the AAPM, ABR, ACR , and CRC PD on topics ranging from radiological protection to government and regulatory affairs.
