Excerpt

This year Satoshi Minoshima, President of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, wrote that ‘Nuclear medicine has been a trailblazer in imaging and sciences for more than a century’ [1]. In the 1950s, before the Internet, faxes and texting, trailblazing in nuclear medicine was taking place on both sides of the Atlantic, but without the benefits of instant communication by Internet, fax or text. …
