Progress in Radiopharmacy edited by P.H. Cox, Steven J. Mather, C.B. Sampson, C.R. Lazarus.

The contents of this volume are based upon presentations made to the Second European Symposium on Radiopharmacy and Radiopharmaceuticals which was held in St. Catharine's College Cambridge in March 1985. This meeting was organized by the Radiopharmacy Group of the British Nuclear Medicine Socie...
