What can a SPECT CT see?

Hi - layperson here. I was treated with radioactive iodine about 9 mos ago and as part of that treatment, had a whole body scan AND a spect Ct of most of my body (not brain or legs). I understand the mechanism, but curious if a SPECT CT would have shown other things also? I never got the full report - just a summary saying ‘your thyroid cancer was not found elsewhere’ - so curious if it ‘sees’ other things as well?

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
