Abstract: A method and system of detecting a disease state in a targeted organ is described using nuclear medicine techniques. In preferred embodiments, a radiotracer with specific uptake for diseased portions of the targeted organ is administered to a patient. A gamma ray counter with at least one gamma ray detector is used to count gamma rays emitted by the radiotracer. By placing the gamma ray detector over the location of the targeted organ, the gamma ray counter can provide a quick yes or no answer on whether the disease state exists in the targeted organ.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a method, system, and program for producing a work of art over a network based on popular demand is disclosed. The preferred embodiments collect bids for a work of art wherein the number of bids for the work of art is recorded in a specific project record and the work of art is ordered to be produced if the number of bids for the work of art reaches a minimum number of bids. Moreover, further embodiments obtains a pre-payment or a guarantee for payment for the work of art while collecting bids for the work of art. In addition, further embodiments set a cutoff date by when the number of bids must reach the number of minimum number of bids or cancel the work of art if the cutoff date has been reached and the number of bids for the work of art associated with the project record does not reach the minimum number of bids.
