Positron Emission Tomography01:29

Positron Emission Tomography

7.8K
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...

Assessment of Diffusion and Perfusion01:17

Assessment of Diffusion and Perfusion

1.9K
Understanding and evaluating diffusion and perfusion is critical in assessing a patient's respiratory and circulatory health. These processes play key roles in maintaining the body's internal environment, ensuring that tissues receive adequate oxygen while waste products are efficiently removed.
The Role of Diffusion in Respiration
Diffusion is the process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In the respiratory system, this...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Physics
  • Radiology Informatics
  • Imaging Standards Development

Background:

  • Medical Physicists routinely use the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Standard in their practice.
  • Historically, their direct involvement in the DICOM Standard's development has been limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the processes for developing the DICOM Standard.
  • To outline how Medical Physicists can engage in this development process.
  • To summarize the structure, role, and current work of the new DICOM Working Group on Physics (WG28).

Main Methods:

  • Review of DICOM Standards Committee (DSC) structure and processes.
  • Summary of the establishment and objectives of DICOM WG28.
  • Overview of AAPM's role as secretariat for WG28 and voting member of the DSC.

Main Results:

  • The DICOM Standards Committee (DSC) has established DICOM Working Group on Physics (WG28).
  • The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) serves as the secretariat for WG28 and is a voting member of the DSC.
  • WG28 is structured to facilitate Medical Physicist involvement in DICOM Standard development.

Conclusions:

  • Increased participation of Medical Physicists in DICOM Standard development is now facilitated through WG28.
  • Understanding the DSC processes and WG28's role is key for physicists to contribute effectively.
  • This initiative aims to better align the DICOM Standard with the practical needs of Medical Physicists.
