1. A system for robotic navigation in nuclear probe imaging, the system comprising: a nuclear detector for detecting radiation, wherein the nuclear detector is operable to receive radiation projection along a line; a robotic assembly connected with the nuclear detector, the robotic assembly operable to move the nuclear detector relative to a patient; a three-dimensional scanner positioned to view the patient; and a processor configured to control movement of the robotic assembly to scan the patient with the nuclear detector in a pattern, the movement being a function of the view of the patient by the three-dimensional scanner, the pattern corresponding to positions and angles for receiving the radiation along lines regularly spaced in a volume of the patient, the processor being configured to tomographically reconstruct an image representing the volume from the radiation projections of the regularly spaced lines, the image tomographically reconstructed with the positions and angles and additionally a three-dimensional surface provided in the view from the three-dimensional scanner as a boundary of the patient limiting radiation locations to one side of the boundary in the reconstruction.
