Course Discription : Nuclear Medicine Imaging (NMI or NM) is a major branch of medical imaging systems. There are three main NMI devices. These are Gamma Camera (Planner NM Imaging), Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomography SPECT, Positron Emission Tomography PET. Basically, these systems are concerned of observing the distribution of a radiopharmaceutical within human. The resulting NM images give clinical information about certain functions of human organs. This matter is not acheivable, or is not easily acheivable by other medical imaging modalities such as CT and MRI. Recently nuclear medicine (NM) has made many major advances in both the radiopharmaceuticals and instrumentation. These advances have led to widespread of many clinical applications of NM imaging that give valuable diagnostic information.This course serves as a review of basic concepts of NM imaging instrumentation (Gamma Camera, SPECT, PET). Also, it provides explanation of the all associated issues related to radio- pharmaceuticals including the process of production, localization, uptake, clearance, and other associated aspects
