This user-friendly guide to PET-CT imaging beyond FDG covers a wide range of non-FDG tracers. It contains almost 500 high-quality images and emphasizes image interpretation throughout, offering guidance on recognizing normal, benign and malignant.

Although [¹⁸F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) generally shows an excellent performance as a cancer-imaging agent when using PET-CT, there are some settings in which other radiopharmaceuticals offer advantages. Such non-FDG tracers are now gaining widespread acceptance not only in research but also in clinical practice. This atlas, including about 500 high-quality images, is a user-friendly guide to PET-CT imaging beyond FDG. A wide range of tracers is covered, such as ¹⁸F- and ¹¹C-choline, ¹¹C-methionine, ¹⁸F-ethyl-L-tyrosine, ⁶⁸Ga-DOTA-NOC, ¹¹C-acetate, ¹¹C-thymidine, and ¹⁸F-DOPA. Throughout, the emphasis is on image interpretation, with guidance on the recognition of normal, benign, and malignant uptake and clear instruction on learning points and pitfalls. This atlas is designed to serve as a reference text for both nuclear physicians and radiologists, and will also be of great benefit to radiographers, technologists, and nuclear medicine and radiology residents.
