New toys for nuclear cardiologists.
Gordon Liljestrand is credited with establishing modern nuclear cardiology as a noninvasive imaging modality in 1939.1 Table summarizes major technological advancements in myocardial perfusion imaging over the past 70 years that have led to more accurate assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). Most of these technical advances have involved radioisotopes and computer software. Camera hardwa...
متن کاملFleming-Harrington Redistribution Wash-in Washout (FHRWW): The Platinum Standard for Nuclear Cardiology
The introduction of the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle and Nuclear Cardiology occurred simultaneously in 1925-1927. Thirty years later the Anger gamma camera would allow for a more sophisticated radioactive isotope counting to determine the presence or absence of disease. When employed with technetium-99m isotopes, ischemic heart disease can be inferred by differences in visual appearance of ...
متن کاملNew approach for calibration of pixelated scintillation detectors of intraoperative gamma cameras
Introduction:SURGEOSIGHT is a dedicated intra-operative hand-held gamma camera designed and manufactured by our team to be used for lymphoscintigraphy. Although conventional gamma cameras are widely used, they lack the capability of the sentinel lymph node (SLN) imaging in the operation room. Like conventional gamma cameras it is necessary to calibrate SURGEOSIGHT for linearity...
متن کاملAn alternative mathematical modeling of the scintillation camera and framework for performance analysis of gamma-ray positioning algorithms
Introduction: Substantive amount of work has been done in modeling and analyzing the scintillation camera system processes including positioning and image formation. The goal of this work is to develop a framework for analyzing performance of nonlinear positioning methods upon construction of a mathematical model of the system. In this study, the photodetector array counts are ...
