Atlas of Nuclear Medicine

By Jimmy LeungMarc CoelJimmy Leung MD, et al.

This new atlas which combines images, algorithms and gamuts, explores all aspects of nuclear medicine imaging. It demonstrates the various presentations of disease processes, including examples of entities which may look similar.
A body-system organization presents clinical cases, whenever possible, in the order of normal/abnormal variant findings.Scans show variations of disease entities to avoid stereotyping of disease presentations.
Image gamuts serve as helpful reminders for possible diagnoses.Correlative imaging compares nuclear scans, plain film X-rays, MR scans, CT scans, and ultrasound examinations...and demonstrates the complementary nature of these modalities.
Algorithms aid decision-making, differential diagnosis, and clinical action.Explanatory and technical notes with case examples accompany most subsections to provide imaging hints and disease review.
Teaching points highlight key information and serve as an easy source for instruction.Cross-references help readers compare complementary cases found in other sections of the book.
