FDG PET/CT in Clinical Oncology: Case Based Approach with Teaching Points


Add your own review!

Overview

FDG PET/CT has rapidly emerged as an invaluable combined imaging modality that provides both anatomic and functional information. This book, comprising a collection of images from oncology cases, is organized according to the role of FDG PET/CT in the evaluation and management of oncology patients, and only secondarily by organ or tumor entity. In this way, it reflects the issues that clinicians actually address, namely: identification of an unknown or unsuspected primary; determination of the extent of disease; evaluation of response to therapy; and surveillance after response, i.e., detection of recurrent disease. In total, 100 cases involving different primary tumors are presented to illustrate findings in these different circumstances. FDG PET/CT in Clinical Oncology will be of great value to all newcomers to this field, whether medical students, radiology, nuclear medicine, or oncology fellows, or practicing physicians.

Reviews

From the reviews: The authors have done a creditable job putting together 100 cases that illustrate the breadth ... of current PETCT use in oncology. Individuals already experienced in PETCT reporting will find several cases of interest and educational but this book is firmly aimed at newcomers, be they nuclear medicine physicians, radiologists or clinical oncologists, and succeeds in providing an illustrated overview of FDG PETCT in oncology.
