Publication of MIRD Monograph: Radiobiology and Dosimetry for Radiopharmaceutical Therapy with Alpha-Particle Emitters was supported by the SNMMI MIRD Committee to provide clinicians with information ...
Gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) is frequently performed in nuclear medicine to evaluate gastric motility (1). GES is accomplished by radiolabeling the solid or liquid component of a meal and then ...
An ectopic kidney is often found inadvertently during CT, ultrasonography, MRI, or urologic physical examination. Ectopic kidneys usually occur in the pelvis. A pelvic ectopic kidney may be ...
Dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging is a valuable tool to aid in the diagnosis of Parkinson disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes. DAT imaging is special among clinical nuclear medicine scans in ...
The Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) is an international scientific and professional organization founded in 1954 to promote the science, technology, and practical application ...
More than 6,300 physicians, technologists, physicists, scientists, and exhibitors gathered at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) 2021 Virtual Annual Meeting, held June 11–15 ...
Many time-based radionuclide techniques, such as glomerular filtration rate measurement (GFR), require prompt intravenous delivery of an accurately measured tracer bolus with minimal residual tracer ...
Patient voids just before the acquisition begins. Technician ensures patient comfort and proper positioning, using additional supports to secure the position, as necessary. Dual-head γ-camera equipped ...
Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology December 2006, 34 (4) 220-223; Iterative techniques have been shown to provide more accurate reconstructions than does FBP, even in cases of sparse or incomplete ...
In 1966, Griffith et al. used “a standard breakfast of ordinary food” labeled with chromium-51 to report the first use of gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES). As the procedure was refined over the ...
Diuretic renal scintigraphy plays a critical diagnostic role by providing a physiologic means for differentiating between obstructive and nonobstructive hydronephrosis and by assessing the function of ...
In recent years, there has been an influx of new tracers into the field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. Most of those that have been Food and Drug Administration–approved for clinical ...
