  abstract = {Hand-held nuclear devices have been used since the late eighties for
	functional guidance during surgical procedures. Using the tracer
	principle, these enable to detect and spatially localize radioactively
	marked processes and thus assist the surgeon by providing him/her
	with functional information in space, otherwise invisible or difficult
	to acquire intra-operatively. Here, we review current approaches
	to improve these procedures by navigation. We focus on the limitations
	of these systems and discuss ways to solve them thinking of a new
	generation of intra-operative nuclear imaging approaches that will
	go beyond prototypes.}
