  • * Tumor masses considered for theoretic tumor dose evaluations.

  • 111In-DOTATOC used as radiotracer.

  • 86Y-DOTATOC used as radiotracer.

  • RBE = relative biologic effectiveness; 111In-DTPA-octreotide = [111In-DTPA0,d-Phe1]octreotide; 90Y-DOTATOC = [90Y-DOTA,Tyr3]octreotide; 177Lu-DOTATATE = [177Lu-DOTA0,Tyr3,Thr8]octreotide.
