Problems and Solutions in Medical Physics: Nuclear Medicine Physics (Series in Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering)

This volume serves as a study guide and revision resource for postgraduate students preparing for examinations in nuclear medicine physics.The problems and solutions presented reflect the typical syllabi adopted by universities and training programmes worldwide.This invaluable study guide should be used in conjunction with other key textbooks in the field to provide additional learning opportunities. Since the publication of the first edition, nuclear medicine has continued to advance rapidly, with significant developments in hybrid imaging systems, detector technologies, image reconstruction algorithms, quantitative imaging, radionuclide therapy and dosimetry methodologies.In response to these developments, the second edition has been carefully reviewed and updated.Existing problems have been refined, solutions have been strengthened and expanded where appropriate, and selected content has been revised to better reflect current clinical practice and evolving standards.
