This new atlas the fourth of a successful series is a completely revised and updated edition
of a previously published FDG PET-CT atlas. In the past few years considerable progress has
been made in the field of PET-CT imaging and this new edition takes full account of these
recent developments. Furthermore its educational mission has been broadened: beyond serving as
a straightforward guide to FDG PET-CT imaging it now encompasses the integrative use of
contrast-enhanced CT and MRI. The new edition also includes non-oncological indications for FDG
PET-CT. The atlas aims to help imaging practitioners to recognize physiological and benign
pathological FDG uptake and illustrates in a case-based practical manner the PET-CT
appearances of all the major tumors and infectious inflammatory and neurodegenerative
disorders. The main clinical applications are covered and learning points and pitfalls are
clearly articulated. The consistent user-friendly format facilitates image interpretation and
allows rapid review of key information needed for FDG PET-CT imaging.
