Areas of treatment

Prostate cancer
+ Treatment of prostate cancer by Lutetium-177

€20945.00

Lutetium-177 (Lu-177) is a radioactive isotope that is used in targeted radiation therapy for prostate cancer. Lu-177 is a beta-emitting radioisotope that emits radiation that can travel a short distance in tissue, making it suitable for treating small tumors or cancerous cells.
