Fraction of the total radioactivity present as the desired radionuclide. A pharmaceutical substance that contains one or more radionuclides. Single-photon emission computed tomography an imaging technique that makes use of a radiopharmaceutical that is labelled with a gamma emitter. [Pg.311]

Similarly to the PET technique, single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is an imaging procedure in which a radionuclide-labeled biomolecule is injected and monitored. Once the biochemical compound enters the bloodstream, it travels to body organs (brain, liver, kidney, heart, and the peripheral vascular system) and is absorbed by them according to each organ s affinity for the particular compound (Gullberg et al., 2010). [Pg.223]
