Synopsis: As with previous editions of this textbook, Radiopharmaceuticals in Nuclear Pharmacy and Nuclear Medicine, Fourth Edition, provides a comprehensive introduction to radiopharmaceuticals and their applications in nuclear medicine. With the increasing emphasis on PET and the expanding role of theranostics, the nuclear medicine community continues to grow as evidenced by the development of several new radiopharmaceuticals and technologies for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in recent years. The book is intended for use in courses taught in the disciplines of nuclear pharmacy, nuclear medicine technology, and nuclear medicine. The chapter topics are of moderate depth and breadth and are referenced to the primary literature. As such, this textbook has become a useful resource for professional practitioners in these disciplines and for those preparing for specialty board examination.
