  • Title: Radionuclide techniques for brain imaging.
    Author: Cowan RJ, Moody DM.
    Journal: Neurol Clin; 1984 Nov; 2(4):835-51. PubMed ID: 6394995.
    Abstract:
    Over the past decade, many of the prime indications for radionuclide brain scanning have become instead indications for CCT, and nuclear medicine studies of the brain have assumed more of a complementary, supportive role. However, there is great promise for improvement in central nervous system radionuclide applications with advances anticipated in both radiopharmaceuticals and instrumentation. Nuclear medicine is continuing to function as a powerful research tool and, in the relatively near future, may regain its role as a major clinical test of the central nervous system.
