Material Detail

When G. N. Hounsfield announced the development of a revolutionary technique called computerised axial tomography in 1972, it was thought that nuclear imaging will get relegated to the pages of history. Since then the world has witnessed the development of MRI, spiral CT etc. Though the role of nuclear imaging has decreased with the advent of these techniques, it still occupies a niche for itself which cannot be usurped. In this issue of SURGERY journal (2000) radio-nuclide scans of a few special organs will be discussed.
