Download or read book Manual of Nuclear Medicine Procedures written by Raman Mistry and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual is designed primarily to be of assistance to trainee nuclear medicine technicians and radiographers. It will also be of value to those who are already trained in the safe handling and use of radionuclides for imaging, as a rapid reference for routine and non-routine nuclear medicine imaging procedures. The procedures described were largely developed or modified at the Nuclear Medicine Department, Guy's Hospital, London, with regular updates during the last 10 years. The main body of each chapter deals with the technical aspects of radionuclide imaging and each chapter contains a section on the prepara tion procedure for the relevant radiopharmaceuticals used with brief summaries of the aim of any data analyses using a computer system. Although the methods described do not represent the only way to carry out such procedures, they have all been evaluated extensively and are known to give satisfactory results. I would like to record my thanks to all members of this department who have helped by providing advice, comments and data. In particular, I would like to thank Dr Colin Lazarus for his help with the radiopharmaceuticals sections. I am most grateful to Dr Sue Clarke and Dr Ignac Fogelman for checking the manuscripts and finally to Professor Michael Maisey without whose constant encouragement and support this work would not have been possible. FOREWORD The development of nuclear medicine was initially a slow process.

Download or read book A Manual of Nuclear Medicine Procedures Penerbit USM written by Birendra K. Das and published by Penerbit USM. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear Medicine is a fast growing specialty. The procedures provide quantitative parameters of organ functions required for modern practice of medicine. With the development of new machines and increased application of computer software, the procedures are under continuous change. Some procedures have become outdated or redundant, while new methods have been introduced to enhance the quality of information obtained from a particular application. Although there are a few books published abroad to inform doctors and technical staff about the procedures, a comprehensive source to give quick information about how different tests are performed, particularly the new developments and the expected outcome both in normal and abnormal cases has been a long felt need. The physician ordering a Nuclear Medicine test also needs to know what patient preparations are required for optimal results, how to satisfy the queries of the patient particularly in respect of radiation exposure which sometimes can be a major concern of the patient. This manual has been prepared not only to describe technical details of various procedures that are currently practiced in Nuclear Medicine but also to provide quick information for the doctors and health care personnel on how to inform the patients about the investigation for which they are being referred and how to interpret the results. Since there is no such comprehensive book published yet in Asia, including South-East Asia, it is likely to be in great demand in the region. All students of master's degree, M.D., DRM, DMRIT, M.Sc. (Nuclear Medicine) and technologists already working in various diagnostic centers will likely buy this book. General practitioners and specialists who refer patients for different radio isotope investigations may find this book useful for quick reference.

Download or read book Radiation Safety in Nuclear Medicine written by Gopal B. Saha and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition is a fully updated guide to radiation safety practice for nuclear medicine professionals, and assists the nuclear medicine technologists in taking their board certifying examination. The NRC requires the appointment of a radiation safety officer (RSO) or an associate radiation safety officer (ARSO) for different uses of radioactive material. Board certified nuclear medicine technologists are eligible to be RSO and ARSO in specific uses of radioactive material after successfully completing a 40-hr or 200-hr course on radiation safety depending on the type of RAM use. This book covers all subject materials in these courses on radiation safety. This guide provides ready-made, handy information on radiation safety as required in the practice of nuclear medicine, presented in a concise form for easy understanding and quick reference related to a given situation and/or incident. The major change in the new edition of the book is the addition of questions at the end of each chapter, to ensure the comprehension of the material by the examinees taking their certifying board examinations. As mentioned in the first edition, the NRC 10CFR20 for Standards for Radiation Protection and the NRC 10CFR35 for Medical Uses of Radioactive Materials are the primary sources of practical information on radiation safety in nuclear medicine. Much of the information is still valid, but many changes and additions have also been made since, which are fully updated here. This is an ideal reference for nuclear medicine physicians, nuclear medicine technologists, and researchers using radioactive materials.
