overing both the fundamentals and recent developments in this fast-changing field, Essentials of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 7th Edition,  is a must-have resource for radiology residents, nuclear medicine  residents and fellows, nuclear medicine specialists, and nuclear  medicine technicians. Known for its clear and easily understood writing style, superb illustrations, and self-assessment features, this updated classic is an ideal reference for all diagnostic imaging  and therapeutic patient care related to nuclear medicine, as well as an excellent review tool for certification or MOC preparation.

  • Provides comprehensive, clear explanations of everything from principles of human physiology, pathology, physics,  radioactivity, radiopharmaceuticals, radiation safety, and legal  requirements to hot topics such as new brain and neuroendocrine tumor  agents and hybrid imaging, including PET/MR and PET/CT.
  • Covers the imaging of every body system, as well as inflammation, infection and tumor imaging; pearls and pitfalls for every chapter; and pediatric doses and guidelines in compliance with the Image Gently and Image Wisely programs.
  • Features a separate self-assessment section on differential diagnoses, imaging procedures and artifacts, and safety  issues with unknown cases, questions, answers, and explanations.
  • Includes new images and illustrations, for a total of 430 high-quality, multi-modality examples throughout the text.
  • Reflects recent advances in the field,  including updated nuclear medicine imaging and therapy guidelines •  Updated dosimetry values and effective doses for all  radiopharmaceuticals with new values from the 2015 International  Commission on Radiological Protection • Updated information regarding  advances in brain imaging, including amyloid, dopamine transporter and  dementia imaging • Inclusion of Ga-68 DOTA PET/CT for neuroendocrine  tumors • Expanded information on correlative and hybrid imaging with  SPECT/CT • New myocardial agents • and more.
  • Contains extensive appendices including updated comprehensive imaging protocols for routine and  hybrid imaging, pregnancy and breastfeeding guidelines, pediatric  dosages, non-radioactive pharmaceuticals used in interventional and  cardiac stress imaging, and radioactivity conversion tables.
