Zusammenfassung

Die Szintigraphie war ursprünglich eine reine Lokalisationsmethode, die sich mit der Erfassung der räumlichen Verteilung radioaktiver Substanzen im menschlichen Organismus, insbesondere auch der Bestimmung von Konzentrationsunterschieden in inneren Organen, befaßte. An ihrem Anfang stand die Entwicklung der ersten automatischen Scanner durch Cassen et al. (1951) sowie Mayneord et al. (1951). Das Scanning, die Szintigraphie mit bewegtem Detektor, war seiner Natur nach weitgehend auf die Beobachtung stationärer Radioaktivitätsverteilungen beschränkt. Daneben wurde jedoch schon relativ früh versucht, szintigraphische Abbildungen mit Hilfe stehender Detektoren durchzuführen. Diese Versuche gehen bis in das Jahr 1949 zurück (Copeland U. Benjamin, 1949). Es ist vor allem das Verdienst von ANGER, in jahrelanger Arbeit die erste und bis heute am weitesten verbreitete Gamma-Kamera entwickelt zu haben (1952, 1953, 1958, 1963, 1964). Mit Hilfe der Gamma-Kamera und der Anwendung von Datenspeicherund Datenverarbeitungssystemen hat sich die Szintigraphie von einer reinen Lokalisationsmethode zu einem Verfahren zur Erfassung des raum-zeitlichen Verhaltens radioaktiver Stoffe im menschlichen Organismus erweitert. Die dynamische Kameraszintigraphie hat heute die konventionelle Szintigraphie mit bewegtem Detektor in ihrer Bedeutung in der Routinediagnostik bereits weit übertroffen.
