Summary: "This book guides pharmacy and health researchers and professionals to understand and interpret medical imaging technology. Divided into two sections, coverage features both fundamental principles and clinical applications. It describes the most common imaging tools - X-ray, CT, ultrasound, MRI, SPECT, and PET - and their use to diagnose common diseases that include heart, cancer, and lung. In addition, the authors introduce the emerging role of molecular imaging in the management of cancer and selection of patients for personalized treatments. The book features many illustrations and provides patient case examples of imaging applications to diagnose disease or monitor therapy"--Provided by publisher.
