[Improvement in radionuclide imaging of the adrenals]
Abstract:
The most adequate method of extracting the background in radionuclide images is proposed. The level of the 131I labelled cholesterol in the adrenal glands is detected with the system consisting of the gamma camera and computer. The method represents a solution of an incorrect problem. Variations of the background caused by the effect of the radiopharmaceutical preparation (RPP) in the liver are assumed to be exponential, and that serves as an additional information to reduce the job to the correct, steady problem. The method offers higher accuracy and consistency as compared to the conventional averaging in detecting the level of the RPP absorbed in the adrenal glands.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
