RadCases Plus QandA Nuclear Medicine-2판

Essential nuclear medicine cases and board-type Q&A review to help you pass your exam!

Recently, the field of nuclear medicine has witnessed an unprecedented explosion of new clinical diagnostic tracers,
radionuclide therapies, hardware, and molecular imaging paradigms. This second edition of RadCases Plus Q&A Nuclear
Medicine by Daniel Appelbaum, John Miliziano, Anup Jacob Alexander, and Yong Bradley reflects these advances,
presenting 100 new cases and 500 high-quality images. The book covers a wide spectrum, from classic topics, such as
thyroid, bone, parathyroid, and renal scans, to the paradigm-shifting concept of "theranostics." For maximum ease of
self-assessment, each case begins with the clinical presentation on the right-hand page; study that and then turn the
page for imaging findings, differential diagnoses with the definitive diagnosis, essential facts, pearls and pitfalls,
and more.

Key Highlights

The latest radionuclide therapies to treat cancers of the prostate, neuroendocrine
system, and liver

Discussion of up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic PET radiotracers,
theraspheres/sirspheres, and new cardiac applications for PYP SPECT

Recently described important artifacts such as WBC and FDG microemboli, white fat
hypermetabolism, and the potentially confusing inflammation patterns in FDG PET associated with emerging cancer
immunotherapies

Timeless topics include radiation handling/safety and resolving camera imaging errors
