Monte Carlo dose distribution calculation at nuclear level for Auger-emitting radionuclide energies

The modeling of realistic radionuclide localization inside cells, including a inhomogeneous nuclear distribution, revealed that i) a strong bias in surviving cell fraction vs dose relationships (taking to different radiobiological models) can arise; ii) the alternative models might contribute to a more accurate prediction of the radiobiological effects inherent to more specific molecular targeted radiotherapy strategies.
