Description and Table of Contents

Description

This new volume in the popular Case Review series is the ideal text to prepare for exams and ensure an up-to-date mastery of the field. Approximately 200 case studies challenge the reader's understanding to the radiologic interpretation and diagnosis for nuclear medicine. Each case study is followed by 3 or 4 questions that mimic the format of the certification exams. Answers and rationales are also provided. Three different difficulty levels test fundamental, intermediate, and advanced skills. The result is a focused and effective way for readers to hone their knowledge.
