Expressions are developed which give the amount of unidirectional radiation from a distant radiation source passing through a cylindrical hole in a slab of material, including the amount of radiation which penetrates the edges of the hole, as a function of angle between the radiation direction and the axis of the hole. The modifications necessary for sources at finite distances are indicated. These functions are integrated over appropriate angles for distant line sources and for extended sources. It is shown that, to a first approximation, the results are the same as the geometrical aperture for a like diameter hole in a similar slab with one mean free path of material removed from each side. The effects due to scattering from the walls of the collimator are discussed and an approximate method of calculation is presented with results for a specific collimator.

The impact of molecular imaging on diagnostics, therapy, and follow-up in oncology is increasing steadily. Many innovative molecular imaging probes have already entered clinical practice, and there is no doubt that the future emphasis will be on multimodality imaging in which morphological, functional, and molecular imaging techniques are combined in a single clinical investigation. This handbook addresses all aspects of molecular imaging in oncology, from basic research to clinical applications. The first section is devoted to technology and probe design, and examines a variety of PET and SPECT tracers as well as multimodality probes. Preclinical studies are then discussed in detail, with particular attention to multimodality imaging. In the third section, diverse clinical applications are presented, and the book closes by looking at future challenges. This handbook will be of value to all who are interested in the revolution in diagnostic oncology that is being brought about by molecular imaging.
