?:definition
  • Probes primarily designed to detect targeted gamma radiation emissions from the human body after the ingestion or injection of a radiopharmaceutical tracer (i.e., radioactive drug). These probes typically include a sensor, a collimator, and shielding from radiation outside the intended target. Gamma radiation detection probes may be intended for use with imaging and/or nonimaging gamma radiation detectors; dedicated probes intended for specific areas of the body (e.g., neck, head, thorax) and/or to perform lymphatic mapping are available. The probes may be used externally or intraoperatively, including during laparoscopic procedures; some probes may be also used to detect radiation from a localized radiation-emitting device or from radioactive material.
