The evaluation of effective doses in nuclear medicine investigations is generally referred to the average man, with no relevant associated diseases, during standard examinations. The effective dose in nuclear medicine examinations can be measured directly with ICRP 68. In clinical practice, the many variables related to patients characteristics and examination type may cause major differences between practical and theoretical doses. Thus, we investigated the factors which may affect internal irradiation in some of the most common nuclear medicine investigations.
