Nuclear Medicine Technology and Techniques Book

This new edition will again reflect the curriculum covered by nuclear medicine training programs. Its wealth of clinical information makes the book a valuable resource for practitioners as well. The first section provides a foundation in math, statistics, and physics, then presents current information on instrumentation, computer and laboratory sciences, radiochemistry, and radiopharmacology. After general discussion of radiation safety and patient care, each body system is covered in a separate chapter. Each chapter opens with objectives and an outline and closes with multiple choice review questions.
