Description: Technetium-99m radiopharmaceuticals account for nearly 80 per cent of all diagnostic studies done in nuclear medicine. The ability to

determine the exact molecular structure of the coordination compounds by using modern powerful analytical tools such as NMR, mass spectroscopy

and X ray diffraction has contributed to the understanding of the structure-activity relationships underlying the biological behaviour of Tc-99m

agents.Consequently, careful design of new ligands and their Tc-99m complexes led to the discovery of imaging agents for perfusion in the

myocardium and brain, thereby extending the scope of diagnostic imaging using Tc-99m radiopharmaceuticals. Based on the new developments in Tc

chemistry, there is good scope for the development of new radiopharmaceuticals for imaging cancer as well as certain specific disease conditions.The

IAEA organized a Coordinated Research Project (CRP) with the specific objective to develop labelled biomolecules with the novel Tc-99m metal cores

required text next Fall Term. I appreciate your dedication and contribution to the field of Nuclear Medicine." Program Director and Chief Instructor,

Nuclear Medicine Program, Methodist University Hospital Schools of Radiologic and Imaging Sciences, Nancy Clifton, RT, CNMT -- "As you can

imagine I get a fair amount of calls from alumni, peers, etc. wanting to know what is the 'latest and greatest' book they should have in their

departments. Hands down I will be recommending your Second Edition as the one they 'ought to buy', as I believe it is a balanced text and can serve

as an excellent departmental guide - especially for those procedures not performed on a routine basis. Plus, as we all are faced with increasing 'multi-

cultural' language issues, the book continues to be a vital resource as we all work to improve our 'patient teaching'." Retired Professor of Nuclear

Medicine , Max H. Lombardi -- "A close and thorough examination of the book indicates that it is an excellent source of detailed and up-to-date

information on Nuclear Medicine procedures as they are applied today in the U.S. The book is definitely a good reference for practicing physicians, NM

technologists, as well as teachers and students in NMT programs across the country. I appreciate the book's organization in alphabetical order rather

than in the classic organ systems way. The alphabetical approach makes it easier to find any procedure instantly. In conclusion, the book is a valuable

Description: The purpose of this book is to provide the outline for the "nuts and bolts" establishment and operation of a nuclear cardiology laboratory.

In so doing, the authors have attempted to deal with the relevant issues that a laboratory director must address in either setting up the laboratory or

maintaining its competitive edge and clinical competence over time. The authors primarily attempted to identify issues related to outpatient imaging

facilities. However, where appropriate issues related to inpatients in hospital-based laboratories are also discussed. In this new edition, the authors

have kept the basic format established in the first edition. In addition to reviewing, modifying and updating each chapter in the first edition, they have

added entirely new chapters on PET imaging, hybrid imaging and the clinical appropriateness of nuclear cardiology procedures. x

Description: In the management of oncologic diseases today, modern imaging modalities contribute heavily to the decision of which form of treatment,

local or systemic, surgical or interdisciplinary, will be most efficient. The addition of functional image information to conventional staging procedures -

be it through positron emission tomography (PET) as a stand-alone unit or the development of combined PET/computed tomography (CT) or by

correlation of modalities using software-based image fusion - represents a further improvement in the diagnostic pathway. Since therapeutic strategies

are changing, the characterization of molecular processes, as delivered by nuclear medicine procedures, become more and more important. To reach

a decision, anatomical-morphological information about the location and texture of a lesion is crucial, as is the functional-metabolic characterization and

general information on the spread of the disease throughout the body. Furthermore, monitoring of response to therapy and diagnostic follow-up to

detect recurrent disease demand detailed information about the properties of a tumor and its relationship to surrounding tissues. The information

needed to strategically plan the therapeutic management can be provided by correlative imaging such as PET and CT or PET/CT. This book is a

comprehensive compilation of the accumulated knowledge on PET and PET/CT in oncology. It covers the entire spectrum from solidly documented

indications, such as staging and monitoring of lung and colorectal cancer, to the application of PET/CT in head and neck surgery, gynecology, radiation

therapy, urology, pediatrics and others. The chapters are supplemented by an introduction into theunderlying techniques of both imaging devices and

radiopharmacy. The book is aimed at the nuclear medicine and radiology specialist as well as the interested physician, who will receive an update of

the possibilities and limitations of PET and PET/CT in oncology. x

Description: The modern practice of nuclear medicine is now well into its seventh decade. Its strength in depicting physiology and function has always

complemented the sister anatomic modalities in use, such as CT, MRI and ultrasound. With the incredible development of PET/CT, this is evident now

more than ever. Clinical Nuclear Medicine is a unique European/American joint venture that focuses on the universal state of the art in both diagnostic

and therapeutic radionuclide methodology. Pertinent clinical applications are emphasized rather than attempting to cover everything included in the

several large comprehensive texts available in the field. This a oepracticala approach should make this a useful guide to nuclear medicine physicians,

technologists, students and interested clinicians alike. x

Description: This third edition has been throughly updated and expanded, prompted by the success of the second edition. Supplemented with tables

and illustrations throughout the book, each chapter provides the reader with well-delineated descriptions of the different aspects of physics and

radiation biology related to nuclear medicine. The second edition was successful and highly acclaimed, as Dr. Saha made many complex concepts

readily understandable for residents and practitioners in nuclear medicine and radiology as well as technologists. The book serves as an excellent text

for those preparing for their Board and Registry examinations. Special features in the Third Edition include: statistical tests: the Chi-Square test and the

evaluation of diagnostic tests; new chapter on software and DICOM; extensive updates on SPECT/CT cameras; new chapter entirely devoted to PET;

expanded chapter on cellular damage by radiation and on dirty bomb and radiation phobia; new revised NRC regulations.

Description: This book outlines the history of the development of nuclear medicine and describes the hurdles that nuclear medicine has had to face, in

view of the perception of risk of radiation. Up to the present day, the diagnosis and treatment of cancer has been primarily surgical. When a mass or an

enlarged lymph node is detected, immediate attempts are made to remove it or obtain a histological diagnosis by biopsy. Today, characterization of

molecular processes in cancerous lesions by PET can help to determine whether therapy should be aggressive or postponed. The most important

reason for the rapid acceptance of PET imaging is its value in the care of patients with suspected or known cancer, for establishing the diagnosis,

planning and monitoring therapy, and in detecting early recurrence. Written for nuclear medicine professionals, non-nuclear medicine physicians and

the public, this book chronicles the development of nuclear medicine together with its basic philosophy in the past, present and future. Contents: Introduction.- Survival of the Luckiest.- So You Want To Be a Doctor.- First Taste of Research.- Medical School and House Staff.- The

National Institutes of Health.- A New Medical Specialty.- The Early Days.- The Thyroid Paves The Way.- The Breakthrough to Lung Scanning.-

Computers in Nuclear Medicine.- From the Lungs to the Heart.- Growth Out of Control.- Molecular Communication.- The Fight Against Infectious

Description: Biomedical ultrasonics is inherently interdisciplinary, involving mechanics, electrical engineering, physics, biology, and medicine. As such,

it can be an extraordinarily difficult subject to cover in one book. Drawn from years of class notes, student interaction and personal experience,

"Foundations of Biomedical Ultrasound" does just that. It covers the fundamental engineering behind ultrasound equipment, properties of acoustic

wave motion, the behaviour of waves in various media, non-linear waves and the creation of images. The most comprehensive book on the subject,

"Foundations of Biomedical Ultrasound" is an indispensable reference for any medical professional working with ultrasound imaging, and a

comprehensive introduction to the subject for students. The book consists of ten chapters that bridge the spectrum from the fundamental properties of

wave propagation through to clinical systems. The first four chapters describe linear and nonlinear propagation, and methods for calculating the field

produced by transducers of various designs. A number of problems designed to test the reader's understanding, well-suited for formal class

assignments, accompany these chapters.

The topics of ultrasound scattering, and transducer design are addressed in chapters 5 and 6. The final four chapters address methods of imaging and

flow measurement. Some 350 drawings, graphs, sketches and colour images have been used. These, together with many tables, have been used to

illustrate the various topics covered; a substantial portion of which are appearing for the first time in print. Contents: 1. Introduction; 2. Theoretical Basis for Field Calculations; 3. Field Profile Analysis; 4. Nonlinear Ultrasonics; 5. Scattering of Ultrasound; 6.

Ultrasound Transducers; 7. Ultrasound Image Arrays; 8. Ultrasound Imaging Systems: Design, Properties, and Applications; 9. Principles of Doppler

Ultrasound; 10. Pulsed Methods for Flow Velocity Estimation and Imaging; Appendix A Properties of Time-and-Space-Invariant Linear Systems;
