Radiologic and Radionuclide Imaging Technology. An Assessment of Selected Medical Instrumentation.

摘要

Radiologic and radionuclide imaging technology was assessed to determine areas of application of relevant new technology and to define possible research and development needed both to enhance performance capabilities of current equipment and to generate improved technology and instrumentation. A list of priority ordered R and D objectives for achieving these goals over the next 5-year period is included,together with a comprehensive rationale supporting the conclusions. An extensive bibliography of over 900items was developed to provide a data base of the state of the art,as represented in the literature (1950-1974),as well as a listing of the work in progress.
