Cardiac Spect Imaging
Cardiac SPECT Imaging, Second Edition offers the best of all possible worlds--a critical topic, internationally recognized authors and cutting-edge coverage. It guides you through all aspects of the modality--from basic principles (acquiring and processing images, quality control)...and clinical applications (evaluating myocardial infarction and coronary artery disease)...to the very latest equipment. It even compares SPECT with other modalities (PET, CT, MRI, and echocardiography) to ensure smart, cost-effective decisions by both the cardiologist and nuclear medicine physician.Look for new chapters on attenuation correction, gated perfusion SPECT, radiopharmaceuticals, and myocardial perfusion SPECT, as well as the very latest on myocardial perfusion SPECT in conjunction with exercise and pharmacologic stress, assessment of perfusion/viability with Tc-99m agents, how SPECT compares with other advanced cardiac imaging modalities, and more

Outstanding technical and clinical resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This textbook is a thorough and up to date review of nuclear cardiology. The chapters on physics, instrumentation and radiopharmaceuticals are clearly organized with chapter subheadings that allow the reader to quickly search for specific details. What was most impressive to me about this text is that it has not only the required technical information, but also includes the most recent literature on outcomes, prognosis, and cost effectiveness. The inclusion of these topics makes this book more than just a technical reference. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to keep up to date on the latest concepts in nuclear cardiology.
