The University of Southern California PET Center is recognized as one of the leading PET centers in the world. The director of the USC PET Center, Dr. Peter Conti, is a distinguished leader in the nuclear medicine community. He and one of his top nuclear medicine fellows, Dr. Daniel Cham, will publish the first PET-CT case based book available in the marketplace. The text is heavily illustrated with original detailed PET-CT images of both common and uncommon cancer cases. Each of the clinical applications discussed is accompanied by a comprehensive description of the history, imaging techniques, and the interpretation and impression of the PET-CT case. Additionally, a section on "pearls and pitfalls" and clinical follow-up will help physicians gain a better understanding of the pathology and its changes during growth.
