Breast-Dedicated Radionuclide Imaging Systems.
Breast-dedicated radionuclide imaging systems show promise for increasing clinical sensitivity for breast cancer while minimizing patient dose and cost. We present several breast-dedicated coincidence-photon and single-photon camera designs that have been described in the literature and examine their intrinsic performance, clinical relevance, and impact. Recent tracer development is mentioned, ...

متن کاملRadionuclide imaging of infection.
Although our understanding of microorganisms has advanced significantly and antimicrobial therapy has become increasingly available, infection remains a major cause of patient morbidity and mortality. The role of radionuclide imaging in the evaluation of the patient suspected of harboring an infection varies with the situation. For example, in the postoperative patient, radionuclide imaging is ...
متن کاملRadionuclide Small Intestine Imaging
The aim of this overview article is to present the current possibilities of radionuclide scintigraphic small intestine imaging. Nuclear medicine has a few methods-scintigraphy with red blood cells labelled by means of (99m)Tc for detection of the source of bleeding in the small intestine, Meckel's diverticulum scintigraphy for detection of the ectopic gastric mucosa, radionuclide somatostatin r...
متن کاملMedical Radionuclide Imaging
Patients entering hospitals in the USA are reported to have about one chance in three of having a radioactive tracer play a role in the diagnosis of their medical problem. , One important diagnostic technique is radionuclide imaging — the use of radioactive isotopes to obtain images of body organs and processes. The IAEA, from its very beginning, has paid close attention to this particular fiel...
