      abstract = {"This atlas is a superb guide to the use of PET-CT for the  evaluation of treatment response in oncology patients based  on its ability to assess tumor metabolic status. The first  part of the book explains the role of PET-CT in response  evaluation in different treatment settings. For comparison,  overviews of the value and limitations of CT alone, PET  alone, and anatomical and functional MRI are included.  Guidance is also provided on the reporting of PET-CT scans  in post-therapy scenarios. The second part of the book  describes and illustrates the use of PET-CT with FDG and  other tracers to assess the treatment response of  malignancies at different anatomic sites. Featuring a  wealth of images, informative case-based discussion, and  evidence-based teaching points, these disease-specific  chapters clearly demonstrate the key role that PET-CT can  play in distinguishing early responders from patients who  are non-responders or are resistant to treatment. Prompt  and accurate evaluation of treatment response is vital as  we enter the era of individualized medicine, and this atlas  will persuade readers of the considerable advantages of  PET-CT over conventional radiological and clinical  methods."--Publisher's description},
