Clinical Nuclear Medicine
This work has true international scope, being a unique European/American joint venture that focuses on the 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 our field. This 'practical' approach should make it an essential guide to nuclear medicine physicians, technologists, students and interested clinicians alike.
