1950 pp., 2580 ills., Copyright 2004Description
An internationally recognized team of editors and contributors present an authoritative, state-of-the-art reference on nuclear medicine and its clinical applications. They focus on helping the reader to solve the challenges encountered in day-to-day practice, including image interpretation, image optimization techniques, and pitfalls in image acquisition and interpretation. Over 1,760 illustrations, 401 in full color, comprise a comprehensive visual guide to interpretation. Completely revised and thoroughly updated throughout, the 3rd Edition encompasses of all of the latest advances in the diagnostic and therapeutic modalities available for cancer, heart disease, neurologic disorders, and trauma as well as other diseases, both common and rare.

Key Features

Over Features 1,760 high quality illustrations depicting a full range of both common and rare diseases and abnormalities.
Emphasizes how to perform and interpret a test rather than the technical aspects of the procedure, and focuses on how to solve the diagnostic problems that occur in day-to-day practice.
Addresses practical considerations such as image interpretation, image optimization techniques, and pitfalls in image acquisition, and interpretation.
Offers state-of-the art global perspectives from an international team of editors and authors.
