Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a method that leverages artificial intelligence to ensure accurate heart scans without added radiation or cost ...

By Shawn BallardCoronary artery disease is the leading cause of death globally. One of the most common tools used to diagnose and monitor heart ...

Method: We used quantitative SPECT technique to study the regional ventilation/perfusion matching. Perfusion was mapped with 99mTc-albumin and ventilation by inhalation of an 99m-tc marked aerosol.

SPECT/CT is versatile non-invasive molecular and morphological functional imaging technique with great translational potential in biomedical research and drug development. It is characterised by the ...

Table 1 summarizes the strengths and limitations of nuclear, magnetic resonance, and fluorescence imaging techniques for targeted ... Figure 1: SPECT imaging of molecular targets in the myocardium.

The use of different diagnostic imaging techniques that employ various forms of radiation such as X-rays (CT and radiography) and gamma rays (PET and SPECT) has revolutionized the management of cancer ...
