Overview
The horizons of sophisticated imaging have expanded with the use of combined positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT). PET-CT has revolutionized medical imaging by adding anatomic localization to functional imaging, thus providing physicians with information that is vital for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of pathologies. Since the integration of PET and CT several years ago, PET/CT procedures are now routine at leading medical centers throughout the world. This has increased the importance of nuclear medicine physicians acquiring a broad knowledge in sectional anatomy for image interpretation. The Atlas of Sectional Radiological Anatomy for PET/CT is a user-friendly guide presenting high-resolution, full-color images of anatomical detail and focuses solely on normal FDG distribution throughout the head & neck, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis, the primary sites for cancer detection and treatment through PET/CT.

Reviews
From the reviews: The publication is an easy guide to consultation and is a valuable aid for all people involved in acquiring and/or reporting on a PET/CT study. Therefore, together with nuclear physicians, it can also be helpful for technologists, radiologists, residents, physicists and medical students, as a fast reference book to immediately recognize radiological sections. an useful publication to have everywhere PET (or SPECT)/CT studies are acquired and reported on. (Andrea Vaccaro and Luigi Mansi, European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Vol. 40, 2013)
