Nuclear medicine applications and their mathematical basis

This book reviews some principal applications of nuclear medicine, specifically from the viewpoint of the mathematical and physical analyses that support the interpretation. In contradistinction to other approaches, the mathematics does not precede the applications in introductory chapters, but is presented in the application chapters with various degrees of granularity. More details on mathematical derivations are illustrated in the last chapter for interested readers. A more detailed review of Bayes theorem can be found (in Chapter 7) explaining how the literature results were retabulated
