Spatial variation in the background source distribution makes tumor detection difficult for single‐detector probes. Using a single energy window that brackets the photopeak helps discriminate against background events dominated by Compton scatterin

The physical properties of three surgical probes containing different radiation detectors are compared: a NaI(Tl) scintillator with a flexible, fiber-optic light guide, and two semiconductor detectors that operate at room temperature, CdTe and HgI2.

Probability functions for the output counts from a radiation detector probe are needed to implement Bayesian detection strategies or to assess performance of the probe. This paper presents methods for simulating a surgical probe designed for tumour d

An in vivo probe was compared with a gamma camera for the task of detecting radiolabelled tumour models in a water phantom. The probe, which contained a 1 cm diameter NaI(T1) detector, was designed and used by us for surgical staging studies of gynae

A hand-held, dual-detector probe has been developed for surgical tumor staging. This dual probe simultaneously monitors counts from a possible tumor site along with counts from adjacent normal tissue using two concentric, collimated scintillation det

Over the last several years, Bayesian decision and estimation theory has become a central theme in the nuclear medicine research program at the University of Arizona. We have used concepts from this theory for image reconstruction, evaluation and opt

External gamma-camera imaging using tumor-seeking radiotracers has been shown to be insensitive in the task of identifying small tumors situated deep inside the body. Our approach is to use probes containing miniature radiation detectors which, when
