  • Title: Scintillation probe detector in the assessment of cardiovascular disease.
    Author: Wagner HN, Rigo P, Baxter RH, Alderson PO.
    Journal: Med Instrum; 1979; 13(3):152-5. PubMed ID: 440174.
    Abstract:
    A simple device that permits measurement of cardiac function in humans after intravenous injection of technetium-99m-labeled albumin or red blood cells is described. The device (nuclear stethoscope cardiac probe) is based on the application of microprocessor technology to a scintillation detector. It can be used to monitor ventricular function continuously and in exercise testing for the detection of coronary heart disease.
