- Abstract
This paper reviews issues concerning Y positron emission tomography (PET), Y PET and Y bremsstrahlung imaging. Specific methods and corrections developed for quantitative imaging, for application in preclinical and clinical studies, and to assess Y dosimetry are discussed. The potential imaging capabilities with the radioisotopes Y and Y are also considered. Additional studies required to assess specific unaddressed issues are also identified.
