High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Robert Nason Beck (26 March 1928 in San Angelo, Texas – 6 August 2008 in Chicago, Illinois) was an American scientist and a pioneer in the field of nuclear medicine. Part of a University of Chicago team, he was the first to propose, in 1961, the use of the radioisotope technetium-99m to detect disease using Positron Emission Tomography, a technique that is presently used an estimated 20 million times a year throughout the world. Beck also helped develop collimators for sharpening the images produced by gamma-ray scanners, and was referred to as 'Mr. Collimator' by colleagues. Beck attended Angelo State University for a year before joining the United States Navy in 1946, where he worked as an electronics technician. Upon his discharge, Beck enrolled at the University of Chicago, where he earned a B.A. in 1954 and a B.S. in mathematics in 1955.
