Essentials of Nuclear Medicine Imaging

I received the wrong edition.

Encompassing the spectrum of Nuclear Medicine in a concise textbook is an amazing feat. Each chapter is organized well by outlining the various indications, clinical scenarios and pearls for each chapter. Images are clear and annotations are easy to follow. Each chapter is organized by basic physics, instrumentation, artifacts, and quality control, as well as by organ system.In the Appendix, there are 'Unknown Cases' for Self assessment, as well as common protocols, and other pertinent information that does not clutter the content of each chapter (as what has been done in the Requisites Series).This is the best text for understanding nuclear medicine for a radiologist. I highly recommend this book.

I am a Nuclear Medicine technology student and I highly recommend this book. It doesnt contain some of the most basic information but as long as you already have some basic knowledge of the nuclear physics and nuclear medicine itself, it is a great book. I has standarized protocols for various exams and gives which come real handy; also gives you the dosimetry for each exam which allows you to see which the critical organs for various exams are.Lots of pictures and examplesI highly recommend this book for anyone who is going into the field of nuclear medicine

It has everything a Tech needs to know. It doesn't go too indepth, the pictures are pretty recent compared to other books, and good images of very particular things you need to know. Case studies in the back are great for quizing yourself, pearls give great highlights, and the tables in the back of great to know information with QC, NRC codes/regulations, etc are easy to understand and gets you the important info for taking your boards and almost any test you'll take in your Nuc Med Course.

The content of this book is detailed, technical, scientific, processes and procedures at are used to image the many different parts of the human body, head and appendages.I want to know why I have yet to receive this book.
