Question I've got about Tl-201

Hey all,

I'm writing a thesis about Tl-201 (Thallium-201) and I was wondering the following:

Is it correct to assume/state that Tl-201 is not used in radiotherapy, exclusively for radiodiagnostics? Because of the fact that Tl-201 only emits gamma -and X-rays? For therapy you would want a particle with more energy, like a beta particle, because that one doesn't just fly straight through the human body, like gamma and x-rays. For diagnostics it's perfect because you would want gamma and Xrays -- exactly what Tl-201 emits.

Hope some of you can help me because I really need it! Also, if I posted in the wrong sub, please let me know.

Cheers, Coolnow_

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
