Abstract:
Objectives: Evaluate the feasibility of the recently introduced freehand SPECT imaging technology for 3D lymphatic mapping of breast cancer patients. Methods: The position and orientation of a gamma probe is acquired simultaneously with its read-out using an optical positioning system. After obtaining synchronized readings from a freehand scan containing the region of interest, the information is used to reconstruct 3D tomographic nuclear images (equivalent to SPECT) using ad hoc models and i...     »
