PUBLICATIONS FROM THE BIOPHYSICS AND NUCLEAR MEDICINE LABORATORY OF THE FACULTY OF MEDICINE AND THE MONTPELLIER UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

The research topics of the biophysics and nuclear medicine team at the Faculty of Medicine and Montpellier University Hospital Center focus on functional and metabolic imaging techniques. They cover all aspects of this field, from the most fundamental to clinical studies, including the development of protocols for acquiring and analyzing data that can be used in routine hospital practice.

The publications listed below were produced by the nuclear medicine department of Montpellier University Hospital by its university hospital staff. They are classified according to the different research topics covered, then by date of publication, starting with the most recent publications. A link provides direct access to the abstracts of these articles. The topics covered are as follows:

Cardiovascular SPECT and PET

Neurological functional imaging

Oncological SPECT and PET

SPECT and PET: Miscellaneous

SPECT and PET tomographic reconstruction algorithms

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)

Pharmacological models and miscellaneous
