Excerpt

The article by Abass Alavi and Sandip Basu in this issue of the European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging vividly embodies, in a scenario that seems to be easy to reach, the expectations that imaging through positron emission tomography (PET) has raised in the nuclear medicine community at large. In Alavi’s view, this scenario resolutely points to soon-to-come wide availability of a complete armamentarium of PET radiopharmaceuticals capable of substituting virtually all of the single photon agents currently employed. Therefore, the most likely horizon that the author depicts for the future of diagnostic nuclear medicine is PET imaging, with dismal chances for both planar imaging and single photon computed tomography (SPECT) to even survive in the daily clinical routine [1]. …
