Dive into a comprehensive 4.5-hour video lecture series on Nuclear Medicine Physics. Explore essential topics including the fundamentals of nuclear medicine, imaging techniques, gamma camera technology, energy spectra in scintillation detectors, and collimators. Learn about quality assurance procedures, tomography principles, image reconstruction methods, and the concepts behind SPECT and PET imaging. Discover quantitative approaches in SPECT and PET, understand the Standard Uptake Value (SUV), and identify common artifacts in PET imaging. Gain insights into nuclear medicine therapy and the emerging field of theranostics. Designed for residents, fellows, undergraduate and graduate students, and technologists, this in-depth review provides a solid foundation in nuclear medicine physics, complemented by an additional 50-lecture series for further study.
