Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book provides detailed information on appropriate protocols for department and patients, stress testing for myocardial perfusion scintigraphy, and how to perform and interpret myocardial perfusion scintigraphy studies and other investigations. This book is based on published international guidelines.
MoreLong description:
This is the first concise guide to nuclear cardiology that provides a comprehensive overview of the current practice of the speciality. It has been designed as a useful pocket reference to aid trainees and specialists during the process of acquiring and reporting nuclear cardiology scans. It can be used as both an introductory text for newcomers to the technique as well as a reference for the more experienced. The book covers all major aspects of nuclear cardiology
with information that is useful to technicians, nurses, radiologists, nuclear medicine physicians and cardiologists. There is a strong emphasis on reporting and clinical correlation as well as commonly encountered pitfalls.
The book has been divided into the following broad sections: physics and instrumentation; radiopharmaceuticals and protocols; stress testing; myocardial perfusion SPECT and radionuclide ventriculography image interpretation; and clinical value of nuclear cardiology.
The book provides the core knowledge and advanced information required to facilitate setting up and provide a clinically relevant service. Wherever possible the text is based on published international guidelines, and aims to demystify the investigations whilst remaining authoritative.
...this is a refreshing, readable and highly informative handbook that I immensely enjoyed reading. I congratulate the authors and am confident that this gallant effort will serve to better educate physicians and improve patient care. Highly recommended.
