The gold standard text-reference Diagnostic Nuclear Medicine is now in its Fourth Edition--with a sharp clinical focus, a streamlined new single-volume format, and a very attractive price. Written by the top authorities in the specialty, this brand-new edition offers encyclopedic coverage of clinically relevant developments in nuclear medicine--including instrumentation, radiopharmaceuticals, and applications. Readers will find the latest on PET, molecular imaging, SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging, monoclonal antibody therapy, and the use of functional imaging studies in oncology. This edition has been trimmed from two volumes to one, so that readers can find exactly what they need quickly, without cross-checking between volumes.
Over the past decade, we have witnessed a dramatic acceleration in the application of magnetic resonance techniques within the medical sciences. Following the original experimental demonstration of the NMR phenomenon by Bloch and Purcell in 1946, emphasis was directed toward the study of physical materials: however, in the 1950's and 1960's, research was reported on the use of NMR to investigate the properties of biological materials including cell systems, excised muscle tissue and certain in vivo models. This book fully discusses this important topic.
A comprehensive examination of concepts and strategies for humane and effective usage of health care technology. The authors provide a multidisciplinary framework for practitioners, educators, policy makers, and the public to utilize in health care decision making.
The NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Physics and Engineering of Medical Imaging has addressed a subject which in the wide area of biomedical technology is one of those which are showing greater impact in the practice of medicine for the ability to picture both Anatomy and Physiology. The information and accuracy obtained by whatever imaging methodology is a complex result of a multidisciplinary effort of several sciences such as Physics, Engineering, Electronics, Chemistry, Medicine, etc ... Development has occurred through work performed in different environments such as basic and applied research laboratories, industries and clinical centers, with the aim of achieving an efficient tr...
This volume presents the latest findings regarding the control of the fluid environments of the eye and brain. The book is comprised of papers presented at a symposium honoring the 80th birthday of Professor Hugh Davson. The contributors are previous students of Hugh Davson who are now leading authorities in the fields of the eye and brain. The eye is considered from its many interfaces, including the role of prostaglandins, blood flow in diabetes, and the vitreous body. Other topics discussed include the role of carbonic anhydrase, cerebrospinal fluid and its drainage, and the development of the blood/brain barrier to macromolecules. The book also shows how recent findings about homologous molecules refute earlier studies with foreign tracers, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the future with a description of the latest imaging techniques used in neurological diagnosis.
An Advanced Study Institute on Ultrasonics in Medical Diagnosis was held in Milan, Italy, from 10 to 15 June 1974. This ASI was of a short five-day duration and limited to cardiac diagnosis by ultra sound only. Since that time, the field of diagnostic imaging in medicine has literally exploded with new and improved means of medical diagnosis such as computed tomography, microwaves, nuclear magnetic resonance and other sophisticated techniques. These developments have enabled medical practitioners to make diagnoses with a minimum of danger to the patient, and a maximum of accuracy never before possible, and represent a multi-quantum advance over the early state-of-the-art presented at the 197...
