Occupational Exposure in Nuclear Medicine and PET
Occupational Exposure in Nuclear Medicine and PET is a scholarly work by Rodney J. Hicks, published in 2000 in ''Molecular Imaging and Biology''. The main subjects of the publication include radiology, nuclear medicine, exposure, positron emission tomography, medical physics, medicine, adaptive radiation therapy, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and fludeoxyglucose (18F). The data suggest that emerging oncologic techniques such as PET, high dose gallium-67, and high dose Tl-201 do not represent a significantly greater occupational radiation hazard than conventional nuclear medicine procedures.
