Hybrid Imaging, SPECT/CT and PET/CT encompasses not only the well-known nuclear medicine cameras (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography, SPECT and Positron Emission Tomography, PET) but also the CT-camera (Computed Tomography, CT), which can be used as a device to determine the attenuation of the radiation emitted from the radiopharmaceutical within the patient making it possible […]
Long axial field of view (LAFOV) PET/CT is the latest development in PET instrumentation. This webinar will provide an overview of the clinical opportunities and applications of LAFOV PET in inflammation and infection imaging. Learning Objectives Target Audience Faculty Event Overview

The course is designed for Technologists and Nurses to enhance their expertise in applying radiopharmaceuticals for AD and MCI diagnosis in nuclear medicine. Participants will learn radiation protection principles, radiolabelling procedures, and waste management. The program also covers novel PET radiotracers for molecular diagnosis of neurocognitive disorders. Additionally, the course addresses patient and caregiver management […]
In nuclear medicine, diagnostic as well as therapeutic, radiopharmaceuticals are administered via an intravenous injection, in a majority of the procedures in a blood vessel at the crook of the arm or on the back of the hand. Occasionally, the injection fails, which results in the radiopharmaceutical ending up extravascularly. The consequence of this may […]
For performing the PET/CT examination, the administration of radiopharmaceutical as unavoidable for imaging with PET. Inversely, the administration of contrast agent to improve the quality of CT part of PET/CT as optional. The accurate intravenous administration of diagnostic radiopharmaceutical (and optionally of contrast agent) may be challenging in some cases, in particular in patients with […]
