PHYS 354: Medical Physics Principles: Nuclear Medicine

Covering the entire spectrum of this fast-changing field, Diagnostic Imaging: Nuclear Medicine, third edition, is an invaluable resource for nuclear medicine physicians, general radiologists, and trainees-anyone who requires an easily accessible, highly visual reference on today's rapidly changing nuclear medicine therapies.

This state-of-the-art handbook, the first in a series that provides medical physicists with a comprehensive overview into the field of nuclear medicine, is dedicated to instrumentation and imaging procedures in nuclear medicine.

An up-to-date edition of the authoritative text on the physics of medical imaging, written in an accessible format The extensively revised fifth edition of Hendee's Medical Imaging Physics, offers a guide to the principles, technologies, and procedures of medical imaging.

Nuclear medicine is a growing specialized medical field in which radiopharmaceuticals, i.e. drugs associated to radioactivity, are used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.

Building on the traditional concept of nuclear medicine, this textbook presents cutting-edge concepts of hybrid imaging and discusses the close interactions between nuclear medicine and other clinical specialties, in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for patients.

Includes non-oncological indications for FDG PET-CT. The atlas aims to help imaging practitioners to recognize physiological and benign pathological FDG uptake and illustrates in a case-based, practical manner the PET-CT appearances of all the major tumors and infectious, inflammatory, and neurodegenerative disorders.

Covers the fast-changing field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. Ideal for residency, clinical rotations, and board review, this compact and authoritative volume covers the conceptual, factual, and interpretive information you need to know for success on exams and in clinical practice.

This well-illustrated pocket book offers up-to-date guidance on the clinical and research applications of PET/CT in the most common neurological and neuro-oncological disorders.

This book is a collection of all pertinent information on radiation safety applicable in nuclear medicine and research using radioactive materials.
