From the reviews:
“This is a concise manual to current clinical nuclear medicine procedures and techniques. … this book is well written and the content is up to date. … the book is best suited for medical students, referring clinicians, or radiology trainees in need of a succinct review before a rotation in nuclear medicine. It may also prove to be popular among radiology residents during board preparation. Furthermore, this book should be considered by medical libraries expanding their collection on nuclear medicine.” (Gregory Ravizzini, Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology, Vol. 53 (11), November, 2012)
“It is aimed at students and medical professionals. … The technical information in the book is quite extensive for its size, with a lot about clinical indications. … The book could be used as a quick guide and introduction to the modality by a medical student.” (Sara Harrison, RAD Magazine, January, 2012)
“This 150 page text, plus 3 glossary pages are intended to give the student and professional clear, and very sound information about nuclear medicine. … The text is clearly written in primer style, enriched by useful images and a few tables. This concise book will be appreciated by all those who want an introduction to this fascinating field of up-to-date imaging modality and study of body functions.” (Giampiero Beluffi, La Radiologia Medica, Vol. 117, 2012)
