A portable radiometric system for nuclear medicine

Abstract

It's shown suggested methods for diagnosing pathological processes in biological objects using a developed portable radiometric system with four gamma-ray detectors. Designed portable radiometric system was used to make 2D imaging of anatomical structures. The system can value pharmacokinetics in several points of wide area of interest at the patient body. In this study specially designed phantoms were used. Phantom models of the liver and blood circulation system were made to assay radiometric system. The construction concept and possible applications of the system in the practice of radionuclide diagnostic studies in vivo are presented. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd
