Functional Imaging in Oncology Biophysical Basis and Technical Approaches - Volume 1 /

In the new era of functional and molecular imaging, both currently available imaging biomarkers and biomarkers under development are expected to lead to major changes in the management of oncological patients. This well-illustrated two-volume book is a practical manual on the various imaging techniq...
