PET in Oncology describes the principles of positron emission tomography and is a useful resource for incorporating the technique in clinical practice. In clear and straightforward fashion, this book offers instructive information and overviews of the physical, biochemical and clinical principles of PET scanning and its routine clinical use. It serves as a reference work for specialists in nuclear medicine and for oncologists, and also provides students and physicians in other medical specialties with a general introduction to the effective integration of this modern technique in routine clinical diagnostics. Above all, this book illustrates the importance of PET in comparison with other imaging techniques.
