This book is written as both a text and a reference book. It
contains numerous images from the biological sciences and clinical
practice, tables, graphs, and fig ures, as well as exercises that
are worked out to aid the reader in understanding principles or
solving problems. In some cases, derivations are placed in appen
dices so as not to break up the flow of the subject matter in the
text. The book is intended for a broad audience interested in
molecular imaging with positron emission tomography (PET). It is
expected that the readers will range from undergraduate, graduate,
and medical students to residents, physi cians, and scientists with
backgrounds from various physical, biological, and medical
specialty areas. Each chapter presents material in a
straightforward man ner that is well illustrated and explained.
Because of the diverse audience for the book, certain chapters or
sections of chapters will be of more interest than oth ers to
certain segments of the readership. Chapter 1 introduces the
fundamental physics upon which PET imaging sys tems is based and
discusses in detail the technologies and methods used to pro duce
PET images. The chapter starts out by reviewing the physics of
positron emission and annihilation and explains how positron range
and photon non colinearity in coincidence detection place certain
limits on spatial resolution.
