With the uncertainties surrounding STP portion size and geometry (and the resulting attenuation of radiation emitted from within STPs), and the differential extent and kinetics of extraction into saliva by users of different STPs, it is challenging to establish an accurate estimate for effective dose to the oral cavity.
This is important toward establishing guidelines for effective dose and frequency of xylitol use.
The radiopharmaceutical activities used in the different protocols for effective dose calculation are listed in Table 5.
In the European Union, the limit for effective dose is 20 mSv per year, averaged over defined periods of 5 years.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends investigation when monthly exposure reaches 0.5 mSv for effective dose, 5 mSv for dose to the lens of the eye, or 15 mSv to the hands or extremities [ 9].
> The coefficient for effective dose from FDG in adults is 1.9 × 10−2 mSv/MBq according to ICRP publication 106 [ 25 ], i.e. about 3.5 mSv for an administered activity of 185 MBq.

Oral and intravenous iron are associated with side effects but the optimal strategy for effective dosing and administration, to maximize compliance, are not known.
Since the completion of the MARINA and ANCHOR studies, physicians have searched for effective dosing regimens that do not require monthly drug injections or examinations.
36, 37 An initial peak inspiratory flow >30 L/min is considered the minimum necessary for effective dosing, and a peak inspiratory flow ≥60 L/min is considered optimal to break up the dry powder into particles of <5 μm diameter that will be deposited into the lower airways.
Computations were performed using a recent model for assessment of effective dose due to cosmic ray particles, applied specifically in the polar region, where the exposure is maximal.
Studies on phantoms in the ankle region showed 21.4 μSv of effective dose for MDCT, for CBCT it was reported ranging from 1.9 μSv to14.3 μSv [11].
