PET/CT in Clinical Practice

This introductory pocket-sized PET/CT book covers all the essentials needed to understand the technology and appreciate the range of normality.

This book will be useful to a wide range of readers, from medical students to consultants, all of whom will need to be as familiar with the PET/CT as an imaging modality as they presently are with CT.

This book contains images collected over the past few years, which beautifully illustrate the distribution of uptake in common malignancies.

The scope of the text covers the tumors for which PET/CT is now used and the tumors for which PET/CT will be used in the future with the advent of newer positron emitters (with shorter half lives).

The format of the book is with the text on the left hand page and images on the right.

Everyone from medical student to consultant oncologist will be touched by this modality and all will need to understand its strengths and weaknesses.
