Committee Mission
The Dosimetry Task force works to standardize how and when dosimetry in radiopharmaceutical therapy should be implemented.
Committee Charges
- Advancing radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) has been identified as one of the top goals of SNMMI. A key component of optimally treating patients with RPT is dosimetry. However, the tools and expertise for dosimetry-based RPT are not widely available and have not been thoroughly validated. Under the Therapy Center of Excellence, this Task Force - comprised of scientists and physicians with experience in RPT and dosimetry- will work to standardize how and when dosimetry should be implemented.
- Establish a reimbursement resource:
- Create an online resource for different therapy indications.
- Develop processes to standardize dosimetry in RPT to ensure quality (acquisitions, reconstructions, dosimetric approach).
- Develop standards in consultation with manufacturers for tools for RPTdosimetry including SPECT/CT cameras and software applications.
- Publish literature on RPT dosimetry, including how it impacts change in patient management.
