Foreword
Since the publication of the fi rst edition of “Diagnostic Nuclear Medicine” rapid
progress has occurred in the fi eld of nuclear medicine imaging.
Multimodality imaging, image fusion and molecular imaging techniques are being
developed at a swift pace and some of these new methods, such as PET/CT scanning,
have already had a major impact on the detection and staging of malignant tumors
in daily clinical practice.
The second edition of this successful volume offers a comprehensive and com-
pletely updated overview of the current applications of modern nuclear medicine
imaging and a fascinating perspective on future developments in this fi eld.
The editor, Christiaan Schiepers, is a leading international expert in the fi eld. He
has been able to recruit several other widely known specialists, each dealing with his
specifi c area of expertise.
It is my great privilege to congratulate the editor and all of the authors for their
excellent contributions to this superb volume.
I am convinced that all specialists involved in clinical imaging as well as those
concerned with the clinical care of oncological patients will benefi t greatly from
this book, which will help them to maintain their high standards of good clinical
practice.
I wish this volume the same success as the fi rst edition.
