The EACVI Handbook of Nuclear Cardiology, 1st Edition by Alessia Gimelli, Wael Jaber, and Ronny Buechel is a concise, practical guide designed for clinicians and imaging specialists who demand clarity and clinical applicability in everyday practice. Perfect for cardiologists, nuclear medicine physicians, technologists, and trainees across Europe and beyond, this handbook translates complex nuclear cardiology principles into actionable steps.
Begin with a clear overview of modern myocardial perfusion imaging, SPECT and PET techniques, and the role of nuclear methods in ischemia detection, viability assessment, and risk stratification. The book highlights contemporary protocols, interpretation algorithms, and safety considerations—including radiation optimization—presented in an accessible, clinically focused format. Emphasis on integration with echocardiography, CT and MRI reflects current multimodality care pathways promoted across European cardiac imaging centers.
Practical features include illustrated case examples, standardized reporting templates, and quick-reference tables of normal values and common pitfalls. Written by leading experts, the handbook distills guideline-driven recommendations and real-world tips that improve diagnostic confidence and workflow efficiency in busy imaging labs.
Whether you are updating department protocols, preparing for certification, or seeking a compact on-shift reference, this edition delivers essential knowledge without unnecessary detail. Its Europe-focused perspective—rooted in the standards of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI)—makes it especially valuable for clinicians practicing within EU healthcare systems while remaining globally relevant.
Order The EACVI Handbook of Nuclear Cardiology to bring authoritative, practical guidance to your clinical practice and elevate the quality and consistency of cardiac nuclear imaging in your service.
