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 used an estimated 20 million times a year throughout the world.〔University of Chicago, "(Nuclear medicine pioneer Robert Beck, 1928–2008 )", press release, August 13, 2008, accessed August 2008.〕 Beck also helped develop collimators for sharpening the images produced by gamma-ray scanners, and was referred to as 'Mr. Collimator' by colleagues.〔Pearce, Jeremy (August 17, 2008).
