Description

The technique described should be considered as a first step towards the classification of scintigraphic data where the energy is included. As in all such studies the interpretation of the resulting images is not necessarily at first evident, and certain experience needs to be established. This applies in particular to the images obtained with the higher factors. It is possible that the use of this technique may resolve, without requiring a priori information, the problem previously encountered using the other 'subtraction' type techniques

Abstract (French)

La technique decrite peut etre consideree comme une premiere etape vers une classification des donnees scintigraphiques incluant l'energie. Comme dans toutes les etudes de ce genre l'interpretation des images resultantes n'est pas necessairement evidente de prime abord, et une certaine experience est necessaire pour l'etablir. Cela s'applique en particulier aux images obtenues avec des facteurs eleves. Il est possible que l'utilisation de cette technique puisse resoudre, sans exiger une information a priori, le probleme deja rencontre en utilisant les autres techniques de soustraction
