SNM highlights as history: 1979

25 Years of Highlights
The Highlights Lectures, delivered by Henry N. Wagner, Jr., MD, at the annual meeting of the SNM every year since 1977, form a series of snapshots of the evolution of nuclear medicine. As part of the celebration of the Society's 50th anniversary, Wagner has gone back to the original texts of these presentations to reassess emerging trends and significant events from the last quarter of a century. Each month during 2003 and 2004, Newsline presents a recap of a past year's Highlights Lecture. This month Wagner looks back at 1979.
