Descripción

Clinical PET/MR presents the state-of-the-art of PET/MR, guiding the reader from how to scan patients, how to read and report the studies, and how keep an eye on what is clinically relevant for a patient’s care. Each chapter starts with the clinical scenario and then moves to pertinent imaging, addressing the need of a clinical PET/MR book written by world experts in both clinical and imaging fields. It discusses the clinical application of PET/MR in diverse subspecialties such as head and neck, neurology, cardiovascular, pediatrics, chest, bone, hematology, breast, hepatobiliary pancreatic, genitourinary, gynecology, and gastrointestinal tract.

This book is a valuable resource for radiologists, oncologists and members of the biomedical field who need to learn more about clinical applications of PET/MR.

Onofrio Antonio Catalano

Onofrio Antonio Catalano, MD, PhD, is Associated Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Catalano has been working on PET/MR since its first clinical introduction in 2012, at first building the PET/MR program in Naples, Italy, and then at the MGH/Harvard, in Boston, as medical director. He has read thousands of PET/MR scans and is one of the world most prolific researchers on the field of PET/MR. Among several achievements, Dr. Catalano has been the first to demonstrate the utility of PET/MR in the clinical oncologic settings, and the first to show the capabilities of PET/MR in discriminating fibrotic from inflammatory stenoses in Crohn disease patients.
