Summary
Summary
The emergence of hybrid systems, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (PET/CT), has stimulated much interest. This Safety Report reviews radiation protection issues arising from the use of PET/CT and offers guidance on dose management and optimization. It provides data on patient dose and risk levels, as well as information for practitioners on optimizing techniques.
