  • Title: Three-dimensional reconstruction of lung perfusion image with positron detection.
    Author: Chesler DA, Hales C, Hnatowich DJ, Hoop B.
    Journal: J Nucl Med; 1975 Jan; 16(1):80-2. PubMed ID: 1110410.
    Abstract:
    Transverse section images of the distribution of pulmonary perfusion in a canine have been obtained using microspheres labeled with the positron-emitting isotope 68Ga and a three-dimensional reconstruction technique. The reconstruction method is more accurate than conventional tomographic procedures and is facilitated by the use of positron detection. The transverse sections presented demonstrate the capacity of the technique to delineate reduction in regional perfusion resulting from occlusion of the artery to the left lower lobe.
