Thanks for these references. The book I was referring to is "Alpha, Beta and

Gamma Ray Spectroscopy" (1965) edited by K. Siegbahn.

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.
