"This book presents case-based PET-CT imaging studies in both oncologic and other diseases. It presents individual cases with clinical history, imaging findings, a brief discussion, and pearls and pitfalls in order to familiarize readers with PET-CT findings in different disease processes. ... The book is most appropriate for the trainee level, particularly for those in a nuclear medicine residency program." (Tara Catanzano, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2016)
