Summary: "Prepare for examinations and enhance your clinical practice with this best-selling Requisites title! Now in its 5th Edition, this outstanding volume in the popular Requisites series thoroughly covers the fast-changing field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. Ideal for residency, clinical rotations, and board review, this compact and authoritative volume covers the conceptual, factual, and interpretive information you need to know for success on exams and in clinical practice. New to this edition : more content on molecular imaging and the latest advances in clinical applications, including positron emission tomography (PET), SPECT/CT, PET/CT, and PET/MRI hybrid imaging ; inclusion of newly approved tracers such as Ga68 DOTA, F-18 amyloid, and F-18 PSMA ; expanded and integrated content on physics and non-interpretive aspects, including regulatory issues, radiation safety, and quality control ; up-to-date applications of nuclear medicine in the endocrine, skeletal, hepatobiliary, genitourinary, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, central nervous, and cardiac systems, as well as PET applications for oncology. In the outstanding Requisites tradition, the 5th Edition also : summarizes key information with numerous outlines, tables, pearls, pitfalls, and frequently asked questions ; focuses on essentials to pass the certifying board exam and ensure accurate diagnoses in clinical practice ; helps you clearly visualize the findings you're likely to see in practice and on exams with nearly 200 full-color images."--taken from back cover
