A reference book, ‘Radiology-Nuclear Medicine Diagnostic Imaging: A Correlative Approach’ authored by Iranian researcher Majid Assadi from the southern port of Bushehr, and in cooperation with two other experts has been published by Wiley-Blackwell.
The book which has been released in 912 pages, provides in-depth guidance on applying the principles of radiologic-nuclear medicine correlation to the interpretation of imaging for diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive indications.
Describing the clinical implications of all major imaging modalities, this comprehensive professional reference offers one-stop coverage of the common diagnostic applications encountered by nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists in day-to-day practice.
‘Radiology-Nuclear Medicine Diagnostic Imaging: A Correlative Approach’ develops the nuclear diagnostic skills necessary to interpret combined imaging modalities and correlate radiologic findings using a disease and organ-based approach to radiologic interpretation.
Thematically organized sections explore a variety of pathologies including diseases of the head and neck, gastrointestinal tract, and pulmonary, endocrine, and central nervous system. Written by internationally recognized Iranian experts Ali Gholamrezanezhad and Hossein Jadvar, this important resource:
-Helps physicians better understand the clinical and treatment implications of diseases with characteristic radiologic appearances
-Includes detailed descriptions of nuclear medicine presentations of diseases of most organ systems combined with radiologic correlation
-Explains refinement of differential diagnoses in various organ systems based on specific imaging features
-Demonstrates how to correlate scintigraphy and PET images with radiography, CT, MRI, and other imaging techniques
-Includes a timely review of the application of nuclear medicine-radiology correlative imaging in research
-Features practical, hands-on clinical imaging references, and more than 600 color illustrations and high-resolution images throughout
