Problems and Solutions in Medical Physics: Nuclear Medicine Physics: Series in Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering
Autor Kwan Hoong Ng, Chai Hong Yeong, Alan Christopher Perkinsen Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 sep 2026
Since the publication of the first edition, nuclear medicine has continued to advance rapidly, with significant developments in hybrid imaging systems, detector technologies, image reconstruction algorithms, quantitative imaging, radionuclide therapy and dosimetry methodologies. In response to these developments, the second edition has been carefully reviewed and updated. Existing problems have been refined, solutions have been strengthened and expanded where appropriate, and selected content has been revised to better reflect current clinical practice and evolving standards.
One hundred and forty-seven solved problems are presented across ten chapters covering core topics, including radioactivity and nuclear transformations, production and properties of radionuclides and radiopharmaceuticals, radiation detectors and instrumentation, gamma camera imaging, SPECT and PET-CT imaging techniques, radionuclide therapy and theragnostics, internal radiation dosimetry, quality control and radiation protection in nuclear medicine. The problems are designed to illustrate and augment the underlying theory, while reinforcing fundamental principles to enhance learning and information retention.
This book forms part of a four-volume set of medical physics problems and solutions. The companion volumes address diagnostic imaging physics, radiotherapy physics and radiation protection.
Features:
- Consolidates concepts and assists in the understanding and applications of theoretical concepts in medical physics
- Suitable as a revision tool for postgraduate students sitting medical physics, radiation oncology, and radiology science examinations
- Each chapter provides examples, notes, and references for further reading to enhance understanding.

Recenzii
"Problems and Solutions in Medical Physics – Nuclear Medicine Physics represents an innovative way of teaching. Instead of using the conventional flow of introducing the basic principles, explaining the theory, providing the numerical equations linking the physical figures of merit, providing examples and finally proposing to the reader some practical exercises, the authors Kwan Hoon Ng, Chai Hong Yeong and Alan Christopher Perkins have chosen a completely different approach.
They start from a problem and ask the reader to provide an answer. The problem can be theoretical, descriptive, technological or practical. Irrespective of the nature of the problem, the authors provide a detailed and comprehensive solution for each of them. In doing so the introduce the underlying theory, suggest the qualitative link between the variables involved, illustrate the numerical equations which allows to quantitate the relationship between the variables and guide the reader step by step in the numerical calculations necessary to obtain the final solution, when needed.
Following this approach, they cover all the different areas of the Nuclear Medicine specialty: radionuclide and radiopharmaceutical production; imaging, with a special focus on the instrumentation (counters, planar camera, SPECT and PET), the techniques and the ways to ensure the quality of the imaging; radionuclide therapy; internal dosimetry and radioprotection.
I was fascinated by this approach, which I found in line with the modern educational techniques. Having had the privilege of chairing the EFOMP - European School for Medical Physics Expert, I was always challenged with the increasing need and demand coming from our students of practical, hands-on, question and answer sessions. I am pleased to recognize that this book provides many, if not all, the answers to the questions that a Medical Physicist must answers in his everyday clinical practice as a health professional."
