The aim of the 4th edition of the Atlas of Nuclear Cardiology is to provide physicians and students in cardiology, radiology, and nuclear medicine who want the latest information in the field of cardiovascular nuclear medicine up-to-date and comprehensive information on advances in instrumentation, radiotracers, protocols, and clinical studies. Unlike other books that are narrow in their scope of either technology and technique or clinical studies, the 4th edition of the Atlas will present diagnostic algorithms and schematic diagrams integrated with nuclear cardiology procedures generously interspersed with color illustrations to emphasize key concepts in cardiovascular physiology, pathology, and metabolism relevant for the clinical practice of cardiology. The atlas emphasizes today’s most current information, meeting the requirements for those who will be using the book as a reference source for certifying or re-certifying in cardiology, nuclear cardiology, nuclear medicine or radiology.
Hybrid PET/CT and SPECT/CT represent technology which were introduced lately in clinical medicine and therefore are changing quickly with several enhancements in instrumentation, imaging methods too as with clinical tests that offer the broadened role of those technologies in clinical practice. As a result, an up-to-date fourth edition from the Atlas is crucial to ensure that the physicians remain up-to-date with the imaging area and keep their abilities. Imaging methods using these technologies need to be up-to-date and/or broadened to be able to acquire top quality images in a reduced radiation burden towards the patient while evolving the use of they for additional advanced disease recognition. Accordingly, beyond considerably upgrading the sections in the 3rd edition, 2 new sections is going to be introduced within the fourth edition, which reflects the broadened clinical programs from the technologies previously three years.
