The usefulness of positron emission tomography

Current Problems in Cardiology, 1998
The evaluation of myocardial blood flow, especially in conjunction with studying either residual oxidative metabolism or glucose uptake, accurately identifies potentially reversible myocardial dysfunction. It also reliably distinguishes between an irreversible and reversible impairment in left ventricular wall motion.

POSITRON EMISSION TOMOGRAPHY INSTRUMENTATION

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2001
Positron emission tomography scanning has evolved over the past 40 years from a tool used predominantly for research to a valued clinical imaging modality. Current PET scanners must perform high-quality whole-body PET and brain PET. There are several levels of PET devices from the dedicated, high-end scanners down to the hybrid PET-SPECT systems ...

The origins of positron emission tomography

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1992
The development of positron emission tomography (PET) took place through the combination of the following recognitions: (1) a handful of short-lived, positron-emitting radionuclides, carbon-11, nitrogen-13, and oxygen-15, exhibit chemical properties that render them particularly suitable for the tracing of important physiological pathways, and (2) the ...

Positron emission tomography: a review

1991
The origin of most medical problems is biochemical in nature. Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful tool to enlighten the underlying biochemical disorder in human disease. Therefore, the biochemical information obtained by PET allows an understanding of the fundamental nature of human disease and provides diagnosting examinations with a high
