The opening chapters cover the pros and cons of widely used radiological imaging techniques, scanners, and radiopharmaceuticals, with emphasis on the state of the art hybrid modalities, primarily PET/CT but also PET/MRI. Helpful information is provided on the clinical and research tracers used in neurodegenerative diseases, movement disorders, epilepsy and brain tumours. These four killers are then discussed in detail, highlighting the role of PET/CT and targeted tracers in their assessment and in radiotherapy planning. In addition, the clinical applications of PET/MRI are considered. Throughout, many images are included to better explain the diseases and the role of hybrid imaging, and the final chapter presents a large sample of teaching cases and files that will assist in daily clinical practice. The book has been compiled under the auspices of the British Nuclear Medicine Society. It will be an excellent asset for nuclear medicine physicians, radiologists, radiographers, neurologists and neurosurgeons. . 410 0$aPET/CT,$x2367-2439 606 $aNuclear medicine 606 $aNeurology  606 $aNeuroradiology 606 $aNuclear Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H29048 606 $aNeurology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H36001 606 $aNeuroradiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H2903X 615 0$aNuclear medicine. 615 0$aNeurology . 615 0$aNeuroradiology. 615 14$aNuclear Medicine. 615 24$aNeurology. 615 24$aNeuroradiology. 676 $a616.83 676 $a616.804757 702 $aFraioli$b Francesco$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337522803321 996 $aPET$92588800 997 $aUNINA
