Integrating Cardiology for Nuclear Medicine Physicians A Guide to Nuclear Medicine Physicians

Integrating Cardiology for Nuclear Medicine Physicians A Guide to Nuclear Medicine Physicians / edited by Assad Movahed, Gopinath Gnanasegaran, John Buscombe, Margaret Hall.

Nuclear cardiology is no longer a medical discipline residing solely in nuclear medicine. This is the first book to recognize this fact by integrating in-depth information from both the clinical cardiology and nuclear cardiology literature, and acknowledging cardiovascular medicine as the fundamenta...
