    Preclinical dosimetry is essential for guiding the design of animal radiopharmaceutical biodistribution, imaging, and therapy experiments, evaluating efficacy and/or toxicities in such experiments, ensuring compliance with ethical standards for animal research, and, perhaps most importantly, providing reasonable initial estimates of normal-organ doses in humans, required for clinical translation of new radiopharmaceuticals. This MIB Guide provides a basic protocol for obtaining preclinical dosimetry estimates with organ-level dosimetry software.
