Clinical studies have demonstrated that hybrid single photon emission computed
tomography (SPECT)/CT for various diagnostic issues has an added value as compared to …

Purpose. We quantify the additional radiation exposure in terms of effective dose incurred by
patients in the CT portion of SPECT/CT examinations. Methods. The effective dose from a …

Aims To assess incremental and total patient exposure from clinical SPECT/CT imaging by
means of effective dose estimations with regards to different protocols and SPECT/CT …

Hybrid imaging procedures such as single-photon emission computed
tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) and positron emission …

Hybrid imaging, such as SPECT/CT, is used in routine clinical practice, allowing
coregistered images of the functional and structural information provided by the two imaging …

Objective To assess the patient radiation dose during routine clinical single-photon emission
computed tomography-computed tomography (SPECT-CT) and measure the increase as …

Single-photon emission computed tomography combined with X-ray computed tomography
(SPECT/CT) improves diagnostic accuracy by allowing better localization and definition of …

New imaging technologies utilising X rays and radiopharmaceuticals are continuously under
development. The benefit of computed tomography (CT) has been so dramatic that there is a …

In the operation of any SPECT/CT system, in addition to internal radiation exposure (γ-ray)
resulting from administration of radiopharmaceuticals, external radiation exposure (x-ray) …
