Abdelhamid H. Elgazzar A Concise Guide to Nuclear Medicine

N.-Y.: Springer, 2011. - 176p.
This useful book describes how molecular imaging is used to answer the questions
raised in the practice of medicine: (1) What is the patient’s problem? (2) Where is the
problem? (3) What is going to happen? (4) What is the best course of action ? (5) Is the
treatment effective? Medicine has moved from whole body to organs to tissues to cells and
now to molecules. We are indeed in a revolutionary time in the history of medicine, and
it behooves all medical students and physicians to learn how to use this revolutionary
approach to diagnose disease, plan, and monitor treatment.
