Adverse Reactions to and Altered Biodistribution of Radiopharmaceuticals. Back Matter Pages About this book Introduction Established as a classic text on nuclear chemistry and pharmacy, Fundamentals of Nuclear Pharmacy has been thoroughly revised with new information added covering innovations in imaging technology and clinical applications in the field. The Sixth Edition also eliminates outdated information from previous editions on radiopharmaceuticals now discontinued from the market.

Gopal B. Like past editions, this book is intended to be used as a textbook on nuclear chemistry and pharmacy for nuclear medicine residents and students and as a reference book for nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists. Authors and affiliations Gopal B. These energy shells, referred to as the K shell, L shell, M shell, N shell, and so forth, are stationary and arranged in order of increasing energy. When there is a transition of an electron from an upper orbit to a lower orbit, the energy difference between the two orbits is released as the photon radiation.

If the electron is raised from a lower orbit to an upper orbit, the energy difference between the two orbits is absorbed and must be supplied for the transition to occur. The electronic structure of the atom of an element determines to a large degree the chemical properties of the element. The periodic table has been devised to arrange the groups of elements of similar chemical properties in order of increasing atomic number.

Electrovalent or Ionic Bond. An electrovalent or ionic bond is formed by the complete transfer of an electron from the valence shell of one atom to that of another atom. In ionic bonds two oppositely charged ions are held together in the compound by coulombic forces. Gopal B. Saha auth. Search in Amazon. Fundamentals of Nuclear Pharmacy pdf.
