Mird-237 ((free)) -

Advances in nuclear technology and the development of new production methods have made it possible to produce the MIRD-237 on a large scale. Today, the isotope is produced through the irradiation of Ytterbium-176 with neutrons in a nuclear reactor or through the proton bombardment of Ytterbium-176 in a particle accelerator.

MIRD-237 is a report published by the Medical Internal Radiation Dose (MIRD) Committee, which provides guidance on the use of Iodine-131 (I-131) for therapeutic purposes. The report, titled "MIRD Pamphlet No. 237: Radionuclide Therapy with Iodine-131", offers comprehensive information on the dosimetry, treatment, and safety considerations for patients undergoing I-131 therapy.
