Abstract
This chapter describes the optimal bone SPECT/CT acquisition protocol for imaging of the jaw, taking into account the characteristics of common jaw pathologies. Suggestions for SPECT and CT acquisition settings are made, together with recommendations for postprocessing and viewing of the dataset.
