Il ruolo che la diagnostica per immagini riveste nella pratica clinica quotidiana e di giorno in giorno sempre piu rilevante: il moderno radiologo deve possedere un'approfondita conoscenza della clinica e dell'anatomia patologica e la capacita di correlazione con i reperti radiologici, al fine di poter cogliere anche i minimi segni e reperti rilevabili.

Inoltre, la vastita delle attuali conoscenze richiede non solo una preparazione radiologica generica, ma anche e sempre piu approfondimenti sub-specialistici: cio conduce alla formazione di radiologi d'apparato e in alcuni casi...

Current radiation protection standards are based upon the application of the linear no-threshold (LNT) assumption, which considers that even very low doses of ionizing radiation can cause cancer. The radiation hormesis hypothesis, by contrast, proposes that low-dose ionizing radiation is beneficial. In this book, the author examines all facets of radiation hormesis in detail, including the history of the concept and mechanisms, and presents comprehensive, up-to-date reviews for major cancer types. It is explained how low-dose radiation can in fact decrease all-cause and all-cancer...

Presented in an interesting, historical and philosophical way, this book describes the current state of play in brain imaging, showing the differences among the different imaging modalities, and reviewing the knowledge about the chemical reactions in the brain, and their relationship to thinking, feeling and acting.

The book reviews all the results of PET and PET/CT imaging of the brain with all radiopharmaceuticals that bind to receptors in all recognized and classified mental diseases, as well as the studies on the localization of those sites that are activated by sensory...

Although ¹⁸F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) generally shows an excellent performance as a cancer-imaging agent when using PET-CT, there are some settings in which other radiopharmaceuticals offer advantages. Such non-FDG tracers are now gaining widespread acceptance not only in research but also in clinical practice. This atlas, including about 500 high-quality images, is a user-friendly guide to PET-CT imaging beyond FDG. A wide range of tracers is covered, such as ¹⁸F- and ¹¹C-choline, ¹¹C-methionine, ¹⁸F-ethyl-L-tyrosine,...

Praise for this book:

"This teaching textbook is highly recommended to any radiologist." --Clinical Imaging May 2011, Antonio F. Govoni, MD

"The difference between this book] with traditional books presenting radiological cases is based on the choice by the authors to present each case as a quiz thereby stimulating the reader to test his/her experience and technical knowledge." --Clinical Imaging May 2011,
Aldo Morra, MD

"Simulates the experience of having the direct supervision of a more seasoned radiologist...
