title: Time profile; space- and time-condensed images.
abstract: A method has been developed to generate "condensed images" and to produce instantaneously time-activity curves from rectangular regions of interest. It uses readily available tomographic software. Examples of esophageal transit and thyroid perfusion are shown. Further developments are discussed.
