Patients undergoing diagnostic imaging studies often receive a
variety of pharmaceutical agents as part of the imaging procedure.
Traditionally, pharmacists have had limited opportunity to be
involved with these agents, but this trend is changing. Today there
is increasing interest in pharmacist involvement. With recent
changes in regulatory oversight of medication management and
heightened attention by accreditation bodies, pharmacists need a
better understanding of the use of pharmacologic agents in this
area of patient care. Diagnostic Imaging for Pharmacists will
provide practicing pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and radiology
department personnel with a basic understanding of the
pharmaceuticals used as part of the imaging process. The book
presents practical information, not covered in most pharmacy school
curricula, on diagnostic imaging techniques and the proper use,
indications, and routes of administration for each pharmacologic
agent. KEY FEATURES: The 13 chapters, with 10 contributing authors,
provide: An introduction to each of the following imaging
modalities: x-ray, nuclear medicine and PET imaging, MRI, and
ultrasound. Detailed information on the use of specific
pharmaceuticals in each modality. Background information on the use
of ionizing radiation in x-ray and nuclear medicine imaging.
Regulations on the medical use of ionizing radiation. Discussion of
the risk and concerns associated with the use of radiation in
imaging studies. More than 50 figures, including actual images
obtained with the various modalities, illustrating the concepts
discussed.
