This small handbook provides a "just the facts" approach to the use of nuclear cardiology for the general cardiology population. It is an adjunct to the existing literature in providing a simple case-based approach to the methodology, application and results of the use of nuclear cardiology.
It is a fast-access, pocket-sized compendium of information, heavily biased toward a clinical cardiology population. As such it will be a low-priced, colorful and appealing reference resource that will be popular to a large number of cardiologists internationally. As greater numbers of countries invest in the new techniques, the hunger for information will increase vastly.
