Summary
The present study, based on a microdosimetric model, plays a key role in facilitating a comparative assessment of the Ag-111 radionuclide against other radionuclides used in radiotherapeutic applications. In particular, this work aims to estimate the absorbed dose and survival fraction of LNCaP prostate cancer cells irradiated with Ag-111, starting from raw microscopy images. The approach uses advanced microdosimetry techniques that take into account irregular cell geometries, which are crucial for accurate dose estimates with β-emitters like Ag. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to estimate the energy deposition and the corresponding absorbed dose.
