Excerpt

While quantitation has always had a clear role in therapeutic nuclear medicine (NM), it has often been considered almost an optional feature in many diagnostic applications of NM. In the past few years, however, partly driven by the increase in computing power achievable at a reasonable cost, image processing techniques aiming to derive quantitative measures from NM studies have experienced exponential growth. This tendency has also been boosted by the need for more objective criteria for diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression, coupled with the exponential growth in clinical applications of PET in oncology. …
