SPECT single photon emission computed tomography: A primer

Book ·
OSTI ID:6276283
This book aims to assist nuclear medicine technologists in expanding their knowledge of nuclear medicine to include SPECT. The text of this primer is written with the assumption that the reader is proficient in most elements of nuclear medicine technology; therefore, the information is limited to data that will answer the basic questions of single-photon emission computed tomography .... The authors' goal is to bring the basics of this material together in a manner that would answer the technologist's fundamental questions. The authors have designed this primer in a generic manner to be used as an extension of the manufacturer's operating manual .... A glossary is included which contains some of the terminology relevant to the specialty, and reading lists are provided at the end of each chapter to direct the reader to more comprehensive text on specific subjects.
