Nuclear Medicine

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1995
Combined SPECT perfusion and PET fludeoxyglucose F 18 metabolic imaging is emerging as a method for determining appropriateness of revascularization. Fusion of SPECT images with images from computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and PET is important for accurate localization of tumor foci, particularly for surgical decisions.

Nuclear medicine in otolaryngology

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1990
Nuclear medicine has a distinct role to play in otolaryngological practice. Accurate diagnosis of endocrine conditions is now possible using precise in-vitro hormone measurement. Specific clinical questions can be answered using in-vivo investigations. 99mTcO-4/123I scintigraphy is used to evaluate thyrotoxicosis and solitary thyroid nodules.

Workflow in nuclear medicine

Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics, 2001
This paper discusses a workflow management system for nuclear medicine. It augments the more conventional PACS with automatic transfer of studies along the chain of activities making up an examination in nuclear medicine. A prototype system has been designed, built, and installed in a department of nuclear medicine, active in a network of hospitals.
