lt;p>This book prepares students and technologists for registry examinations in nuclear medicine technology by providing practice questions and answers with detailed explanations, as well as a mock registry exam. The questions are designed to test both the basic knowledge required of nuclear medicine technologists and the practical application of that knowledge. The topics covered closely follow the content specifications and the components of preparedness as published by the certification boards. This 5th edition includes expanded coverage of positron emission tomography, multimodality imaging, and other new procedures and practices in the field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging.

"The book is specifically targeted towards applicants to the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board or the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. But interest in the book may extend to a wider readership, including not only technologists but also medical students and residents worldwide who are interested in nuclear medicine. ... this book could be also suggested as an exercise tool for all those interested in nuclear medicine." (Luigi Mansi, European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Vol. 46, 2019)"This handy volume is designed as a revision aid in preparation for the examinations offered by the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board or American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. It is written by technologists, for technologists ... . The book features a wide range of example multiple choice questions on a diverse mix of topics ... . A mock examination is also included, and answers provided for both the questions and examination." (Heather Williams, RAD Magazine, July, 2018)
"The audience is new graduates preparing for their board exams. Three physicians and a technologist known in the field of nuclear medicine author this book. ... This is a great tool for those studying to take their ARRT(N) and NMTCB boards. ... I like the way the book it is divided into sections so students can work on a topic that they are weak on." (Ann Marie Voslar, Doody's Book Reviews, April, 2018)
