DESCRIPTION:
The book describes the state of the art of emission tomography, including all facets of conventional SPECT and PET, as well as contemporary topics such as iterative image reconstruction, small-animal imaging, and PET/CT systems. Emission Tomography: The Fundamentals of PET and SPECT is an essential resource for understanding the technology of SPECT and PET, the most widely used forms of molecular imaging. Emission Tomography: The Fundamentals of PET and SPECT explains the physics and engineering principles of these important functional-imaging methods. PET and SPECT are two of today's most important medical-imaging methods, providing images that reveal subtle inform

Best Book for SPECT / PET Design This book is by far the best book for understanding the details of SPECT / PET design. It comprehensively covers every aspect of the design of these machines. I am currently designing a SPECT machine for a medical instrumentation company and this book has been an invaluable guide. My co-workers borrow this book so often that I have ordered a second copy. If you are serious about understanding SPECT / PET then this is. "Emission Tomography: The Fundamentals of PET and SPECT" according to R. Powsner. Very comprehensive review and well written. Strongly recommended.
