Synopsis

Emphasizing practical technique over the underlying physics, this book provides guidelines for appropriate use of PET/CT. The concentration is on the use of PET/CT in lung, lymphoma, esophageal, colorectal, head/neck and melanoma imaging, with coverage extending to tumors of the reproductive system. Each chapter offers a summary of the appropriate staging system. A full chapter is devoted to the range of normal PET/CT appearances. While the primary focus of the book is on FDG-PET/CT, Chapter 10 is devoted to a review of the future application of other positron emitters, and includes a beginners guide to the physics of PET/CT. Everyone from medical student to consultant oncologist will encounter this modality in a clinical setting, and all will need to understand its strengths and weaknesses. Concise, relevant and illustrated with many detailed PET/CT images, the book is essential reading for all consultants and medical students in radiology, nuclear medicine and oncology.
