Essential nuclear medicine cases and board-type Q&A review to
help you pass your exam! Recently, the field of nuclear medicine
has witnessed an unprecedented explosion of new clinical diagnostic
tracers, radionuclide therapies, hardware, and molecular imaging
paradigms. This second edition of RadCases Plus Q&A Nuclear
Medicine by Daniel Appelbaum, John Miliziano, Anup Jacob Alexander,
and Yong Bradley reflects these advances, presenting 100 new cases
and 500 high-quality images. The book covers a wide spectrum, from
classic topics, such as thyroid, bone, parathyroid, and renal
scans, to the paradigm-shifting concept of "theranostics." For
maximum ease of self-assessment, each case begins with the clinical
presentation on the right-hand page; study that and then turn the
page for imaging findings, differential diagnoses with the
definitive diagnosis, essential facts, pearls and pitfalls, and
more. Key Highlights The latest radionuclide therapies to treat
cancers of the prostate, neuroendocrine system, and liver
Discussion of up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic PET
radiotracers, theraspheres/sirspheres, and new cardiac applications
for PYP SPECT Recently described important artifacts such as WBC
and FDG microemboli, white fat hypermetabolism, and the potentially
confusing inflammation patterns in FDG PET associated with emerging
cancer immunotherapies Timeless topics include radiation
handling/safety and resolving camera imaging errors Thieme's
