This practical guide is a reference source of cases for images obtained on state-of-the-art integrated PET/CT and SPECT/CT imaging systems. It covers the full spectrum of clinical applications, including head and neck tumors, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and genitourinary tumors. In addition a wealth of illustrations reinforce the key teaching points discussed throughout the book.
This profession has progressed tremendously over the last decade. A few years ago one of us (DD) was the senior editor of FDG Imaging: A Teaching File, a book that proved to be a reference source of FDG image cases obtained both on dedicated PET tomographs and hybrid scintillation gamma cameras. This was followed by Nuclear Cardiology and Correlative Imaging: A Teaching File, a text already providing important insights into the complementarity of SPECT and PET cardiac imaging with cardiovascular CT and MRI. These two books were modeled after Nuclear Medicine Imaging: A Teaching File, recently updated with the second edition and designed as a manual of nuclear medicine cases, including studies that were performed with both SPECT and PET tracers.
