This article provides a review of the literature on the history, physical and technical foundations and features of the application of positron emission tomography (PET), which came into practice in the 1970s. PET is a method of visualizing the space-time distribution of a positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical (RP) in the patient‘s body by annihilation radiation. The classification of radiopharmaceuticals that are used in clinical and diagnostic practice is considered.
