The aim of this article is to review the single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) segmentation methods used in patient-specific dosimetry of [sup.177] Lu molecular therapy. Notably, [sup.177] Lu-labelled radiopharmaceuticals are currently used in molecular therapy of metastatic neuroendocr...
