The neuroscientist of today disposes of a powerful instrumentarium for functional imaging that has never made more impressive advances than before, helping to better understand the mechanisms of diseases and to develop and design drug treatment options with a superior efficacy and safety profile. Among this instrumentarium, positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) have become forerunners in the functional imaging arena, much more than functional magnetic resonance imaging, and for this reason, this book is dedicated to PET and SPECT.
