Atlas of PET/CT in Oncology - Volume 1 : Brain, Head and Neck Cancers

The atlas aims to help practitioners to interpret PET/CT images of tumors in brain, head and neck in a timely and accurate way. Illustrating in a case-based manner, the PET/CT appearances of glioma, meningioma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, eye tumors, ear and temporal bone tumors, and neck tumors are covered. Each chapter is organized in the same format of clinical overview, PET/CT diagnosis, typical/atypical/confusing manifestation of the diseases. This book will be a useful reference to residents and practitioners in nuclear medicine, radiology, oncology, radiation oncology and nuclear medicine technology.
