Table 4 Skeletal-averaged spongiosa S-values (mGy/MBq-s) calculated using the sources AM, IM, and TBS. The fraction from the skeletal average S(AM ← AM) in Table 3 is calculated in the columns on the right

From: Active bone marrow S-values for the low-energy electron emitter terbium-161 compared to S-values for lutetium-177 and yttrium-90
