RE: Obtaining old HHSC references



Mike,



I think John is probably referring to the text by Siegbahn (since I got this

reference from him).



Kai Siegbahn   "Alpha-, Beta- and Gamma-ray Spectroscopy"    Vol I and II

(1965) North Holland Publishing Company, Amsterdam



Chapter XXV (D)  p1569 by BG Petterson deals with internal bremsstrahlung.

You may be thinking of Jeff Siegel (also well known to this list for his

publications on nuclear medicine patient release criteria), e.g.....





Siegel JA, Khan SH. Body contour determination and validation for

bremsstrahlung SPECT imaging. J Nucl Med. 1996 Mar;37(3):495-7. 

 

Siegel JA, Zeiger LS, Order SE, Wallner PE. Quantitative bremsstrahlung

single photon emission computed tomographic imaging: use for volume,

activity, and absorbed dose calculations. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys.

1995 Feb 15;31(4):953-8.  



Siegel JA. Quantitative bremsstrahlung SPECT imaging:

attenuation-corrected activity determination. J Nucl Med. 1994

Jul;35(7):1213-6.  



Parsai, E.I., Ayyangar K.M., Dobelbower, R.R., and Siegel, J.A.,

and CT, J Nucl Med 1997; 38: 319-324.
