Summary

Bremsstrahlung imaging (BSI) is increasingly becoming more relevant thanks to the use of β⁻-emitter in radiometabolic therapies, offering the potential for patient-specific quantification of radiopharmaceutical biodistribution. However, its clinical implementation is challenged by the continuous photon energy spectrum and low bremsstrahlung yield. In this work, we extend our previous investigation on nearly pure ⁹⁰Y to explore critical aspects of BSI for the hybrid β⁻ emitter ¹⁶⁶Ho, aiming to improve quantitative imaging in therapeutic applications.
