Dynamic scintigraphy: calculatiion and imaging of regional distribution of quantitative parameters.

The theory and general method of calculation of the parametric (functional) images at dynamic studies is described briefly. This method is illustrated by a general program DYNAM. PARAM. PRESENT. created for Clincom apparatus. Moreover, the selection of parameters and algorithms for calculation, the problems associated with the filtration of data, the correction for dead time and for non-homogeneity are discussed. In addition to the general method, there are presented here the possible ways of application of the simplified methods of construction of the parametric images by means of algebraic operations between images in special cases. Some aspects of that method are completed by examples of practical parametric images of some organs.
