Case-Based Nuclear Medicine, Second Ed.

Donohoe KJ, Van den Abbeele AD.  Case-Based Nuclear Medicine, Second Ed. Thieme 2011, 600 pages, 442 illustrations, $99.95.

This 600-page softcover text written by Drs. Donohoe and Abbeele uses a quiz format of 165 cases in Nuclear Medicine, only 7 of which relate to neuroradiology. Each case comes with a clinical history, images, and the technique on one page, followed on the next 2 to 3 pages by an interpretation of the images, a differential diagnosis, and a discussion (with the now common place “pearls and pitfalls”). Suggested readings follow. The book will have little to no appeal to those who practice strictly Neuroradiology, but the book could be of value to a nuclear medicine library.
