Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Great for radiologists
This is an excellent book if you are a practicing radiologist and like books that just get to the point. This book summarizes the scientific literature on PET and PET/CT concisely, has a lot of tips on interpretation, a lot of CT correlation for rads, and is overall very practical. I bought an advance copy at RSNA and like this the best of the PET books I have.
