The second edition of the Encyclopedia of Cell Biology is now available. This six volume set has four main sections: Molecular, Organizational, Functional, Translational and Pathological Aspects of Cell Biology. The second edition is updated, providing greater coverage of specialized cell function and translational applications, and putting greater emphasis on these topics in graduate/medical teaching.

The new version includes a standard template for each chapter, making the content easier to navigate, as well as inserts and graphics which provide summaries of key points in each chapter.

New eBook: Handbook of Interventional Radiologic Procedures

Posted on by

The Library has recently acquired the 5th edition of the Handbook of Interventional Radiologic Procedures. This handbook covers indications, contraindications, preparation, technique, post-procedure management, and prevention and management of complications. This text is useful for interventional and general radiologists, but also for fellows and residents in training, IR nurses, and special procedure technologists.

Key concepts and features include how to perform all current interventional radiologic procedures, content on risk management, nursing management, and drugs and dosages, and information on vascular access and catheter-directed angiography, trans-arterial procedures, trans-venous procedures, non-vascular procedures, and intra-procedural patient management.

New eBook: Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging

Posted on by

Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging is a new 4-volume set that offers complete coverage of the science behind nuclear medicine with the clinical aspects of diagnostic imaging. Beginning with sections on the physics related to nuclear medicine, radiation biology/safety, and instrumentation/quality control, it then covers radiochemistry and the development of new radionuclide therapy/tracers, and basic techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). 

Content also includes clinical aspects, with sections on clinical/preclinical nuclear imaging, as well as other in vivo molecular imaging techniques such as optical imaging, digital image analysis (radiomics), as well as the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in diagnostics.
