In the era of precision medicine, numerous new anticancer agents, such as molecular targeted agents and immune checkpoint inhibitors, have been developed to improve outcomes in cancer patients. FDG PET plays a key role in evaluating the effects of these novel treatments because it can detect changes in the metabolic activity of tumors before any reduction in their size is visible on other imaging modalities. Accordingly, FDG PET is of prognostic as well as diagnostic value, and allows prompt changes in patient management. The book is written by expert clinicians from Japan, where the universal public health insurance system ensures that FDG PET is widely used in routine oncological practice and cancer screening. It represents an unrivaled and comprehensive resource that will be of value for all healthcare professionals in the field of clinical oncology. 606 $aCancer$xTomography 606 $aOncology 606 $aTomography, Emission 615 0$aCancer$xTomography. 615 0$aOncology. 615 0$aTomography, Emission. 676 $a660.05 702 $aFujii$b Hirofumi 702 $aNakamura$b Hiroyuki 702 $aYasuda$b Seiei 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484814103321 996 $aApplications of FDG PET in Oncology$92585241 997 $aUNINA
