An expertly written state-of-the-art review of every aspect of cardiovascular PET imaging
Filling a void in the medical literature, this much needed resource clearly and succinctly reviews the current knowledge and practical aspects of cardiovascular PET. With coverage that spans everything from instrumentation to clinical procedures to the future directions of cardiac PET, the intent and focus of this book is to provide readers with the most current, reliable, and clinically relevant data in one concise, focused resource. Â
Essential for anyone preparing for the board exam in nuclear medicine, Cardiovascular PET: Current Concepts is organized into six sections:
• Current Concepts of Cardiovascular PET Imaging: The New Paradigm
• Clinical Overview of Contemporary Myocardial Perfusion Imaging with Cardiac PET
• Quantitative Myocardial Blood Flow Assessment
• Technical Developments in Cardiovascular PET
• Myocardial Viability Assessment: The Current Rule of Cardiac PET
• Current Status of Assessment of Cardiovascular Inflammation and Infection Imaging
Each chapter concludes with an informative “Editor’s Perspective†in which one of the editors places the material discussed in the chapter into real-world clinical perspective.Â
If you would like a better understanding of cardiovascular PET, or want to incorporate it into your own clinical practice, this book is required reading.

"The authors have succeeded in providing a guide to understanding the basic principles of cardiovascular nuclear imaging, learning its applications, and interpreting the results that is ideally suited for cardiology and radiology trainees. 3 Stars." ("Doody's Review Service"). "Nuclear Cardiology: Practical Applications" provides concise, expert guidance on indications for nuclear cardiology procedures, specification of tests, and interpretation of results. Completely updated with the latest techniques and procedures, this well-illustrated guide is essential to clinicians who require a practical understanding of this specialty as well as trainees, including cardiology fellows and radiology residents. It is also a must-have review for anyone seeking certification or recertification in nuclear cardiology.
It features coverage of new and emerging techniques in nuclear medicine, such as fatty acid and neurohumoral imaging, the use of hybrid technology, and cardiac positron emission tomograhic (PET) imaging. It emphasis on indications for tests helps you decide which nuclear test is the best choice for a particular problem. It includes valuable perspective of nuclear cardiology's role in patient management; review questions at the end of each chapter assure understanding of the material and prepare you for certification testing; chapters on quality initiatives in nuclear cardiology and the appropriate use of SPECT and PET procedures; and, (New) Extensive Q&A Full-color insert of radiograph images.
