Nuclear medicine imaging SPECT systems

Zanzonico, P. Principles of Nuclear Medicine Imaging Planar, SPECT, PET, Multi-modality, and Autoradiography Systems. Radiat. Res. 177, 349-364 (2012)... [Pg.39]

Several techniques from radiology and nuclear medicine have been combined in hybrid imaging techniques, such as SPECT-CT, PET-CT and PET-MRI. In these hybrid systems the use of radiopharmaceuticals (sometimes next to conventional contrast agents) remains essential. [Pg.310]

A number of experimental parameters have to be optimized in order to obtain the best SPECT image. These include attenuation, scatter, linearity of detector response, spatial resolution of the collimator and camera, system sensitivity, minimization of mechanical movements, image slice thickness, reconstruction matrix size and filter methods, sampling intervals and system deadtime. In a hospital, calibrating and monitoring these functions are usually performed by a Certified Nuclear Medicine Technician or a medical physicist. [Pg.994]
