Abstract
The purpose of this article is to point out the great principles for processing in cerebral tomoscintigraphy while being focused on the key points of the process according to the recommendation of the European Academy of Nuclear Medicine and the French Society of Nuclear Medicine. We will insist, however, on the methods of tomographic reconstruction. Indeed, progress of data processing makes it possible today to use in clinical routine, the iterative methods of reconstruction which were reserved until these last years for research. For as much, the method of filtered back projection remains still commonly used. It appeared necessary to us to point out the base of these various methods of reconstruction and to underline some essential key points for their use. Obviously, the quality of an examination is not limited to the reconstruction. We will underline at the end of this article the importance of the other chain links of treatment, as the quality control of the images, the volume reorientation, as well as the principles of the semiquantification.
