Summary


Nuclear imaging is increasingly required to investigate complex clinical problems and to guide therapeutic intervention. The most commonly used nuclear agent is FDG, and when FDG PET is combined with CT, the nuclear medicine physician and oncologist possess a very powerful tool indeed. The top quality images that are acquired show exquisite anatomical and morphological detail. Advances in Oncologic Medicine provides the reader with essential background information and a wealth of illustrative material to ensure immediate disease pattern recognition.
