Nuclear Cardiac Imaging: Principles and Applications |
Popis: |
One of the fundamental quests of nuclear cardiology is the search for elements with appropriate chemical properties for use in radiopharmaceuticals, which have radioactive isotopes that produce photons well suited for imaging, and deliver only a small radiation dose to the patient. This requires that that the emission of any radiation that does not contribute to the image be kept to a minimum and that the isotope remains radioactive only for a short period of time. Understanding the emission of radiation from atoms requires an understanding of atomic and nuclear structure and forces. |
