This annual features an in-depth review of recent progress in the scintigraphic diagnosis of pulmonary embolism. Other topics covered include: PET and nuclear oncology; the prognostic role of myocardial perfusion imaging; the stripe sign and other variants in hepatobiliary scintigraphy; nuclear medicine's role in the diagnosis and therapy of liver metastes; and the uses of nuclear medicine in the evaluation and treatment of male impotence. The book also includes a discussion of the expanding clinical role of intraoperative gamma probes and a timely update on peptide radiopharmaceuticals.
In the new edition of this very successful book, European and North American experts present the state of the art in diagnostic and therapeutic radionuclide procedures. The aim is to examine established and emerging clinical applications in detail, rather than to consider everything included in the comprehensive texts already available within the field. This “practical” approach ensures that the book will be a valuable guide for nuclear medicine physicians, technologists, students, and interested clinicians alike. This edition of Clinical Nuclear Medicine has been extensively revised to take account of recent developments. The roles of SPECT/CT, PET/CT, and PET/MRI are clearly explained and illustrated, and the coverage extended to encompass, for example, novel PET tracers and therapeutic radionuclides, advanced techniques of brain imaging, and the development of theranostics. Readers will be fully persuaded of the ever-increasing value of nuclear medicine techniques in depicting physiology and function and complementing anatomic modalities such as CT, MRI, and ultrasound.
This annual features state-of-the-art reviews of positron imaging in oncology and changing concepts in therapy of differentiated thyroid cancer. Other topics covered include the role of gallium-67 and other radiopharmaceuticals in the management of lymphoma; capromab pendetide imaging of prostrate cancer; common hepatobiliary scintigraphic patterns; cardiopulmonary nuclear medicine in children; and nuclear medicine in paediatric kidney infection. A discussion of PACS and teleradiology is also included.
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
This work has true international scope, being a unique European/American joint venture that focuses on the state of the art in both diagnostic and therapeutic radionuclide methodology. Pertinent clinical applications are emphasized rather than attempting to cover everything included in the several large comprehensive texts available in our field. This "practical" approach should make it an essential guide to nuclear medicine physicians, technologists, students and interested clinicians alike.
