Gamma Cameras for Interventional and Intraoperative Imaging

Gamma Cameras for Interventional and Intraoperative Imaging, 1st Edition, examines the design and clinical adoption of compact, small field of view gamma cameras. It explains the shift of nuclear imaging from dedicated departments directly to the patient bedside and operating theatre.

The volume covers detector design, mobile and hand-held devices, and intraoperative camera systems. It also explores clinical applications, including sentinel node detection in breast cancer, melanoma, and head and neck cancer.

Intended for surgeons, operating theatre staff, medical physicists, technologists, nuclear physicians, and radiologists, this reference provides an introduction to portable nuclear medicine instrumentation.
