In preparation for a PET scan, a 75 kg patient is injected with fludeoxyglucose, a special type of glucose containing radioactive Fluorine-18 (18F). The injected solution contains 2.6 mCi of 18F, which has a half life of 109.8 minutes. Each radioactive particle has a mean energy of 249.8 keV, 90% of which is absorbed by the patient’s body. (1 mCi= 3.7*107 Bq.) a) Draw a graph showing the activity of the solution as a function of time. Label the half...

3. A patient is administered 111 MBq (3 mCi) of 131 as a treatment for Graves' disease. Uptake studies show that the thyroid rapidly absorbs 60% of the administered dosage. The biological and radiological half-life of 131I is 2 days and 8.01 days, respectively. The average energy per transformation of 131I is 0.230 MeV/transformation. Assuming that the uptake of 131I in the thyroid is very rapid (i.e., instantaneous), calculate the initial dose rate and the total dose (commitment) to the...
