The subject of singl-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is generally reviewed. The basic interaction processes of gamma rays in matter are outlined, and the formation of conventional gamma-ray images is described. We then outline the extension of these concepts to the formation of three-dimensional or tomographic images. Of particular concern in emission tomography, the effects of gamma-ray attenuation and scattering are outlined. Several examples are given of practical SPECT systems, and representative results are given.
