Emission Computed Tomography

Neurosurgery, 1978
Emission computed tomography (CT) is a nuclear medicine visualization technique that yields an image of the distribution of a previously administered radionuclide in any desired transverse section of the body. Emission CT allows the safe, quantitative, three-dimensional measurement of regional radionuclide distribution in tissue.

Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2008
Accurate anatomical localization of functional abnormalities obtained with the use of positron emission tomography (PET) is known to be problematic. Although tracers such as (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) visualize certain normal anatomical structures, the spatial resolution is generally inadequate for accurate anatomic localization of pathology.

SINGLE PHOTON EMISSION COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 1995
Single-photon emission computed tomography is a well established functional imaging technique in epilepsy that aids precise noninvasive localization of the seizure focus required for surgical intervention in refractory seizures. Electroencephalography with video monitoring of seizures precedes more invasive evaluation, such as cortical or depth ...

Emission computed tomography

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1977
Although there are many common aspects to x-ray transmission and radionuclide emission computerized tomography, (ECT) there are added difficulties and a number of particular factors that form the basis of ECT. At this time, the instrumentation design and application strategies in ECT are diverse and in a stage of rapid development.

Single photon emission computed tomography

Computerized Radiology, 1985
Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is becoming an increasingly important part of routine clinical nuclear medicine. By providing tomographic reconstructions in multiple planes through the patient, SPECT expands the clinical applications in nuclear medicine as well as providing better contrast, edge definition and separation of target ...

Single photon-emission computed tomography

Journal of Nuclear Cardiology, 2010
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses single photon emission computed tomography. The development of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) put a powerful physiologic imaging technology in the hands of physicians and researchers. SPECT is neither as expensive nor as complex as positron emission tomography (PET) and can be used for many

Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography in Endocrinology

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2006
The introduction of fusion of functional and anatomical imaging modalities into the field of endocrinology led to a major breakthrough in diagnosis, staging, and follow-up of patients with endocrine tumors. The management of endocrine tumors is based on a wide variety of conventional techniques, including computed tomography, ultrasound, or magnetic ...
