Klappentext zu „Nuclear Medicine Imaging: An Encyclopedic Dictionary “
The rapidly growing area of nuclear medicine imaging receives only limited attention in broad-based medical dictionaries. This encyclopedic dictionary is intended to fill the gap. More than 400 entries of between one and three paragraphs are included, defining and carefully explaining terms in an appropriate degree of detail. The dictionary encompasses concepts used in planar, SPECT, and PET imaging protocols and covers both scanner operations and popular data analysis approaches. In spite of the mathematical complexities in the acquisition and analysis of images, the explanations given are easy to understand and many helpful concrete examples are provided. The book will be ideal for those who wish to obtain a rapid grasp of a concept beyond a definition of a few words but do not have the time to search the reference literature. The almost tutorial-like style accommodates the needs of students, nuclear medicine technologists, and varieties of other medical professionals.

Rezension zu „Nuclear Medicine Imaging: An Encyclopedic Dictionary “
From the reviews:"This is an interesting little book that does exactly what it says on the cover. It is a dictionary of terms that are involved in nuclear medicine imaging, many of which have expanded definitions and explanations. The book is split into chapters which are arranged alphabetically. ... I am delighted that I now have a copy, which I can leave in the scanning room for general reference. ... I would undoubtedly recommend it." (Colin Todd, RAD Magazine, August, 2012)
