Alpha particles simply have a shorter penetration than beta particles, so cellular damage is more limited to the locations the ligand binds the radioactive material. The problem with both is that the radioactive material is placed everywhere there is uptake of the ligand.
Joseph (Sean) Siry – Laguna Woods, CA. sent: 6:52 PM
So the actinium treatment does not rely on knowing the precise location of the metastasis?
Larry (Alaska-Estradiol as ADT monotherapy) sent: 6:53 PM
Joseph/Sean, both treatments (using ligands) bind to the same cells. The ligand (sort of) “knows” where to bind.
