 Aims
To illustrate the role of radioisotopic functional imaging in the diagnostic strategy. To apply the radioisotopic
functional information to the understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms. To describe the importance of
functional imaging in view of the available technology.
Main themes
Application of in vivo nuclear medicine in pathology: discussion of clinical problems with the help of
radioisotopic exploration. Description of the principle of radioiosotopic exploration and application to clinical
questions. Description of the equipment and tracers used.
