Physicists work in many health-related areas, such as: clinical settings, academia (teaching and research), industry (technology development and servicing), national and local government regulatory agencies, accreditation agencies, laboratories (calibration and dosimetry laboratories), and standards’ organizations. Clinically qualified medical physicists (CQMPs) are professionals working i…
The present publication defines an updated methodology and tools for comprehensive auditing, including all aspects of nuclear medicine. Adopting these guidelines will allow an NMS to demonstrate the level of efficiency, quality, safety and reliability in delivering clinical services.
The fourth edition of this well-established text has been completely revised and updated to reflect developments in the science and practice of radiopharmacy that have taken place over the last ten years. As the demand for radiopharmacists continues to increase, this book aims to meet the need for specialised information on the use of radiopharmaceuticals in the detection and treatment of disea…
Recent advances in the field of nuclear medicine (NM) are expanding the role and responsibilities of the nuclear medicine technologist (NMT) to include more complex and detailed tasks. New technologies are making the diagnosis, management, and treatment of illnesses more sensitive, more specific, more accurate, and ultimately safer for both the patient and the technologist. Radiation Safety …
Through four editions, this resource has established itself as the best introduction to nuclear imaging techniques. It is practical, yet comprehensive, covering physics, instrumentation, quality control, and legal requirements. The 5th Edition features a new color format, with many user-friendly features such as "Pearls and Pitfalls." More than 600 pictures in digital-quality resolution depict …
This “Handbook of Nuclear Medicine Practices in the Developing Countries” is meant primarily for those, who intend to install and practice nuclear medicine in a developing country. By and large, the conventional textbooks of nuclear medicine do not cater to the special problems and needs of these countries. The Handbook is not trying to replace these Textbooks, but supplement them with spec…
The Book of Nuclear Medicine and PET/CT, new sixth edition, which welcomes Kristen M.Waterstram-Rich as a new co-editor, will also include new title, Nuclear Medicine and PET/CT: Technology and techniques, and will include a new chapter on CT physics and instrumentation. As dual-modality imaging has become an integral part of the clinical practice of nuclear medicine, pertinent information abo…
