This book takes a practical approach to the application of nuclear medicine physics that will primarily assist nuclear medicine and cardiology residents and technologists in building their background knowledge and understanding of why and how things happen in the clinical environment. For medical residents in the field, it can serve as a quick review that incorporates all the basic definitions and recent developments in the field. I can recommend this book without hesitation as a teaching tool for introductory nuclear medicine physics in residency and technologist training programs. - DOODY'S BOOK REVIEW (September 2012) Dimitris N.
