Question

28. What does the term "microdosimetry" refer to? How is it different from "macrodosimetry?" 29. What are the principal difference between a "CAT scan, "SPECT" and "PET" tomographic methods with respect to the types and sources of radiations used? 30. Who was Gordon Moore and what does Moore's Law predict? What impact might this law mean for the future of diagnostic nuclear medical imaging assuming it is correct with respect to current state of the art technology 31. Describe the differences between X-ray "quality" and X-ray "quantity" as they apply to radiation exposure to patients from X-ray procedures. 32. What are the speeds in petaflops of the current fastest supercomputers in the world, where is each located and what type of work was it primarily designed for? 33. Describe the essential differences between image reception, recording and display in general between X-ray procedures and nuclear medical procedures. What is digital imaging?
