OLINDA|EXM® Product Overview
OLINDA|EXM software for calculating organ doses and effective doses in nuclear medicine studies is now available for Windows-based personal computers. The OLINDA|EXM (Organ Level INternal Dose Assessment | EXponential Modeling) software calculates radiation doses to different organs of the body from systemically administered radiopharmaceuticals and performs regression analysis on user-supplied biokinetic data to support such calculations.
OLINDA|EXM runs on Windows-2000 or Windows-XP-based personal computers, with 256 MB RAM, and 100 MB free space on the primary hard disk.
OLINDA|EXM was extensively beta-tested prior to release, and has been granted a FDA 510(k) - K03396 by the US Food and Drug Administration as a software device.
Method
- OLINDA|EXM uses the RADAR method of dose calculation (Stabin and Siegel, Health Phys. 85(3):294-310, 2003) and the dose conversion factors as supplied on the RADAR web site. This site is visited nearly 500 times per month by investigators from around the world who seek dose-related information.
- The OLINDA|EXM code uses essential data from this site to automate dose calculations for nuclear medicine patients. Doses to 29 different organs in SI or traditional units are provided for 10 whole body phantoms and 5 specific organ phantoms (peritoneal cavity, prostate gland, head and brain, kidney, and spheres).
- Users need only specify which radionuclide is to be used (814 nuclides included), which body model(s) are of interest (adult male, adult female, children, and women at different stages of pregnancy), and enter parameters which describe the biokinetics of the radiopharmaceutical within the body.
- Results are displayed on screen and may be saved to disk or printed.
Licensing OLINDA|EXM
OLINDA|EXM is available for license via our quick and easy online licensing process. At the end of this process you will be able to download the OLINDA|EXM software application online.
