In this paper, we study 2D cylindrical Positron Emission Tomography (2D PET) sampling. We show that rectangular sampling schemes are more efficient than usual square schemes. 1. PET and sampling 1.1 PET The aim of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is to map the internal nuclear activity of a patient from exterior measurement. Usually, the patient received some nuclear substance by inhalation o...
Nuclear medicine techniques designed to identify bone metastases are reviewed. They include planar and whole body, single photon emission tomography (SPET), F-18 Fluorine and FDG, deoxyglucose, positron emission tomography (PET), bone imaging.
