Radionuclide imaging of infection and inflammation: A Pictorial Case-Based Atlas - Tapa dura

From the reviews:

“The only book to our knowledge with the format of an atlas designed and published specifically for scintigraphic imaging of infection and inflammation. ... The strength of this atlas is due to teaching completeness in a unique field in which there are no other qualified competing publications. ... useful to medical students, to residents in nuclear medicine and radiology, to professional working in diagnostic imaging ... .” (Simona Ricciolino and Luigi Mansi, European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Vol. 41, 2014)

“Book is divided into 13 chapters covering a wide spectrum of infection and inflammation imaging in the entire body. ... I highly recommend that this atlas be added to any radiology or nuclear medicine departmental library as a good reference manual ... . will help the younger nuclear physician or those in training to learn from and expand their knowledge base and can also serve as a refresher manual for older physicians who may be unfamiliar with some of the abnormalities showcased in this atlas.” (Usha A. Joseph, The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, Vol. 54 (9), September, 2013)

“The authors present 47 clinical cases and many more imaging examples which illustrate the manifestations of commonly encountered infectious and inflammatory conditions. ... The strength of this title comes from the abundance of images that cover most of the clinical scenarios likely to be encountered by readers. Clinical cases are well presented, each ending with conclusion/teaching points that are useful pearls of wisdom for everyday clinical practice.” (Henry H. Tam, RAD Magazine, August, 2013)

“The purpose is to provide the background essential for understanding the pathophysiological basis of radionuclide imaging of infection and inflammation and guidance for the correct interpretation of the images obtained for these studies. ... it is appropriate for practitioners performing these studies, as well as residents and fellows in nuclear medicine and radiology who wish to gain a better understanding of this field. ... This is a high quality and highly useful book demonstrating the value of radionuclide imaging ... .” (Bennett S. Greenspan, Doody’s Book Reviews, July, 2013)

“The Authors of this 331-page case-based atlas ... aim to present the reader with an overview of the use and results of nuclear medicine in the field of infection and inflammation. ... The book will be very useful as a teaching aid for trainees in Nuclear Medicine and Radiology as well as Clinicians who are often unaware of the diagnostic opportunities offered by radionuclide imaging, which offers benefit to the patient, sometimes overrunning other radiological modalities.” (Giampiero Beluffi, La radiologia medica, Vol. 118, 2013)
