TY - JOUR T1 - Method for Determining Tomographic Plane Separation and Detector Distances for Use with the Searle Pho/Con Tomographic Multiplane Scanner JF - Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology JO - J. Nucl. Med. Technol. SP - 152 LP - 154 VL - 5 IS - 3 AU - Richard F. Gors Y1 - 1977/09/01 UR - http://tech.snmjournals.org/content/5/3/152.abstract N2 - Use of the Anger rectilinear tomographic scanner provides such benefits as better information density, superior resolution away from the geometric focal plane, and opportunities to assess lesion depth and reduce confusion and error by virtue of its ability to separate pathology from surrounding normal variance. To reap these benefits, the technologist must have a thorough working knowledge of the tomoplanes. This allows him to distribute the planes throughout the organ being scanned in a fashion that best utilizes tomographic imaging and optimizes resolution. ER -
