Produktbeschreibung
The purpose of this book is to provide the outline for the "nuts and bolts" establishment and operation of a nuclear cardiology laboratory. In so doing, the authors have attempted to deal with the relevant issues that a laboratory director must address in either setting up the laboratory or maintaining its competitive edge and clinical competence over time. The authors primarily attempted to identify issues related to outpatient imaging facilities. However, where appropriate issues related to inpatients in hospital-based laboratories are also discussed.

In this new edition, the authors have kept the basic format established in the first edition. In addition to reviewing, modifying and updating each chapter in the first edition, they have added entirely new chapters on PET imaging, hybrid imaging and the clinical appropriateness of nuclear cardiology procedures.

"In this book, the authors explain what it takes to initiate and maintain a nuclear laboratory. ... The intended audience is primarily cardiology, radiology, and nuclear medicine physicians-in-training, as well as practicing physicians who want to understand management of a nuclear imaging laboratory. ... This book covers every aspect of a nuclear imaging laboratory's operations. ... This well thought out and written book on how to effectively manage a nuclear laboratory covers common problem areas." (Christopher Louis Paris, Doody's Review Service, April, 2008)

"This book ... is geared toward the department director, technical manager, chief technologist, administrator or other individual in the process of starting or obtaining accreditation for a nuclear cardiology laboratory. For anyone managing a cardiology laboratory, this book is an excellent review. ... The chapters are easy to understand ... . It is a great'A-Z' book ... . The author has created an excellent blueprint for standardized quality imaging in nuclear cardiology." (David Gilmore, Radiologic Technology, Vol. 79 (5), May/June, 2008)

"This text is the second edition of a guide to setting up a free-standing outpatient nuclear cardiology laboratory. ... The text is written by physician and technologist experts in nuclear cardiology ... . Overall, this text should be useful for individuals completing their training in nuclear cardiology either through cardiology or nuclear medicine residencies." (H.
