Resumen

En el trabajo se exponen razones para considerar que el SPECT, particularmente con radiofármacos de continuará teniendo un importante papel en medicina nuclear, no obstante los avances asociados a la incorporación de la tecnología PET. Las razones que se examinan son las siguientes. Se aprecia un mejoramiento de la tecnología SPECT con el desarrollo de nuevos sistemas de detección y las ventajas de la aparición de los sistemas híbridos SPECT/TAC, la mayor vida media de los principales radionúclidos SPECT como y en comparación con los radionúclidos PET, lo que posibilita su traslado a mayores distancias, la realización de estudios con radiofármacos con más de un radionúclido en el mismo paciente y la posibilidad de detectar lesiones de baja captación, favorecido por lo indicado de las vidas medias. Finalmente se examinan los principales núcleos base de formación de complejos de con distintos ligandos que aseguran la aparición de nuevos radiofármacos de interés. Se examinan las potenciales aplicaciones oncológicas y cardiológicas con énfasis en estas últimas. Se considera que la radiofarmacia del continuará jugando un importante papel en medicina nuclear.
