Nuclear Medicine Physics: A Handbook for Teachers and Students

Descripción

Nuclear medicine is the use of radionuclides in medicine for diagnosis, staging of disease, therapy and monitoring the response of a disease process. It is also a powerful translational tool in the basic sciences, such as biology, in drug discovery and in pre-clinical medicine. Developments in nuclear medicine are driven by advances in this multidisciplinary science that includes physics, chemistry, computing, mathematics, pharmacology and biology. This handbook comprehensively covers the physics of nuclear medicine. It is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students of medical physics. It will also serve as a resource for interested readers from other disciplines, for example, clinicians, radiochemists and medical technologists who would like to familiarize themselves with the basic concepts and practice of nuclear medicine physics
