In nuclear medicine, an S-value is defined as the mean absorbed dose to a target volume per nuclear decay in the source region. In this TFG, S-values for cellular dosimetry have been calculated for simplified source/target configurations. Monoenergetic electrons and radionuclides that emit electrons or positrons were considered. Two approaches were adopted to perform the calculations. The present results were compared with literature data computed by full Monte Carlo simulations as well as reference values
