    Abstract
    Several studies have been conducted concerning the dose to hospital personnel from positron emission tomography (PET) radiopharmaceuticals, but to date no specific parallel studies have been done for veterinary PET technologists. Compared to human PET imaging, veterinary personnel are potentially interacting with animal patients for a longer time period, sometimes in close physical proximity, because of the need for anesthetizing patients. There is no equivalent data on personnel exposure from human PET imaging; human patients are not anesthetized and are kept in an isolated room after injection ...
