Atlas of PET-CT A Quick Guide to Image Interpretation
Stefano Fanti
Atlas of PET-CT A Quick Guide to Image Interpretation - illustrated - Berlin Heidelberg: Springer Science & Business Media, c2008 - 288 pages
This user-friendly atlas, featuring about 500 images, should be a quick guide to interpreting PET/CT images with FDG in oncology. It also illustrates how to recognize normal, para-physiological, and benign pathological uptakes in a case-based practical manner. The text, which includes most relevant technical and pathophysiological premises, covers the main clinical applications and clearly articulates learning points and pitfalls. This atlas aims to become a standard text for nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists, residents and technicians whose work involves PET/CT imaging. This book is also suitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
