This card summarises the views of the Paediatric and Dosimetry Committees of the EANM and reflects recommendations for which the EANM cannot be held responsible. The dosage recommendations should be taken in the context of “good practice” of nuclear medicine and do not substitute for national and international legal or regulatory provisions.
