It opens with a thorough introduction covering the fundamental science and the clinical basis for use of PET/CT in this age group. Pitfalls and artifacts are examined, and normal variations and benign findings are carefully described. Each subsequent chapter addresses the role of PET/CT with different radiopharmaceuticals in the evaluation and management of a specific disease. The full range of oncological diseases is covered, including the rare ones. Succinct descriptions of clinical cases are included and, when appropriate, comparisons are made with other modalities. In addition, the role of PET/CT in biopsy guidance and in radiation therapy planning is explained. This book will be invaluable for residents and practitioners in nuclear medicine, radiology, oncology, radiation oncology, and nuclear medicine technology.Nuclear medicinePediatricsOncology  RadiologyNuclear Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H29048Pediatricshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H49006Oncologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160Diagnostic Radiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H29013Nuclear medicine.Pediatrics.Oncology  .Radiology.Nuclear Medicine.Pediatrics.Oncology.Diagnostic Radiology.618.920075722Cistaro Angelinaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300328603321Atlas of PET1521918UNINA
