PET-CT A Case-Based Approach

“Professor Conti, who is a pioneer in the development of the clinical application of PET and PET/CT, published the first edition of PET-CT: A Case-Based Approach in 2005. This second edition again presents correlative 3-dimensional cross-sectional PET using 18F-FDG and CT images … . This book is a valuable resource for physicians and trainees in nuclear medicine and radiology, as well as being a way for referring physicians to learn more about how PET/CT can be applied in clinical practice.” (E. Edmund Kim, Journal of Nuclear Medicine JNM, Vol. 58 (11), November, 2017)

“This book presents case‐based PET‐CT imaging studies in both oncologic and other diseases. It presents individual cases with clinical history, imaging findings, a brief discussion, and pearls and pitfalls in order to familiarize readers with PET‐CT findings in different disease processes. … The book is most appropriate for the trainee level, particularly for those in a nuclear medicine residency program.” (Tara Catanzano, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2016)
