Description
A low cost methodology to produce images of internal sick organs by radioisotopic intake, is presented. Dosimetries of thermoluminescent material and Teflon (ratio:50%) in bidimensional matrix shape are used with a Pb collimator. This collimator-bidimensional matrix system was tested ''in vivo'' and in thyroid phantoms using99mTc. A comparative evaluation between this method and the scintigraphy one is presented. (M.A.C.)
Abstract (Portuguese)
Apresenta-se uma metodologia que visa produzir-se a baixo custo, imagens de orgaos afetados, dentro do corpo humano aos quais se administrou internamente radioisotopos. Utilizam-se dosimetros compostos de material termoluminescente e teflon (proporcao de 50%), em forma de matriz bidimensional, acoplados a um colimador de Pb. Relata-se que esse sistema colimador-matriz bidimensional foi testado em fantomas de tireoide e ''in vivo'', utilizando-se99mTc. Apresenta-se avaliacao comparativa entre este metodo e a cintilografia. (M.A.C.)Files
