Based on the most novel approaches and cutting-edge clinical and
scientific information regarding radionuclide imaging and therapies
for neuroendocrine tumors, this clinical guidebook represents a
unique collaborative effort between endocrinologists, nuclear
physicians, oncologists, surgeons, physicists, radio-pharmacists
and geneticists. It begins with the embryology, classification and
molecular genetics of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
and carcinoids, chromaffin cell tumors, and MEN1- and MEN2-related
tumors. Following a chapter on radiopharmaceuticals in
neuroendocrine imaging, it turns to the physics and technology of
current and cutting-edge radiology, including SPECT/CT and PET/CT
and PET/MR. Discussing of radionuclide imaging covers the tumors
mentioned above, as well as pulmonary and thymic neuroendocrine
tumors and medullary thyroid carcinoma. A presentation of
radionuclide therapies follows, including 131I-MIBG therapy,
somatostatin receptor-based therapy, and alpha radionuclide
therapy, as well as the role of nanoparticles. Comprehensive and
up-to-date, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Nuclear Medicine for
Neuroendocrine Tumors will assist and guide physicians who
encounter patients with these conditions, either from a diagnostic
or therapeutic standpoint, and particularly emphasizes the current
and emerging medical devices and imaging and therapeutic options.
