{"product_id":"9781626233393","title":"SPECT and SPECT\/CT: A Clinical Guide","description":"\u003cp\u003eInternationally renowned authorities in the field of hybrid imaging contribute firsthand expertise on the practical application of single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and SPECT\/CT. By combining clear anatomic markers from CT with functional knowledge from SPECT, SPECT\/CT provides added value for patient evaluation and is becoming increasingly prevalent in routine clinical practice. Indeed, hybrid imaging is touted by many as a game changer in nuclear medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first two chapters of this book provide a foundation for understanding SPECT and SPECT\/CT technological principles, including the associated radiopharmaceuticals. The remaining chapters detail the utility of SPECT and SPECT\/CT in clinical practice including neuroscience and pediatrics, as well as specific pathologies. The book concludes with in-depth discussion of select case studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEfficacious use of SPECT and SPECT\/CT for primary body systems, including the central nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, and skeletal systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValue for the assessment of neoplastic disease, infection\/inflammation, thyroid and parathyroid gland disorders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFourteen high-quality videos delineate specific techniques and clinical applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeticulous, four-color graphics clearly elucidate key concepts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrative case studies offer educational teaching pearls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eTogether, the concise, evidence-based text and wealth of SPECT\/CT images deliver a solid knowledge base, enabling practitioners to learn the effective use of this technology.
