The Mongolian Mind-Body Interaction Therapy
"About the book: My medical approach relies not just on drugs or a specific type of nutrition, but on cultivating patients' mindset grounded in love and a respect for life, and on awakening their spiritual and physical potential through the energy of LOVE, thus achieving the effect of self-healing. This is a path of innovation, and I see my path with ever increasing clarity. The philosophy of mind-body interaction therapy will undoubtedly become a guiding principle in the advancement of medicine, and a globally esteemed discipline. A new medical paradigm is taking shape. Whether it serves as a supplement, an alternative, or development to conventional medicine, I believe it marks a significant step forward in the history of promoting human health! - Nagongbilige, 2014"
What Radiology Residents Need to Know: Breast Imaging
This book is an introduction to breast imaging, specifically designed for the needs of first through third year residents. While rotating through breast imaging, radiology residents are asked to learn significant amounts of information at a fast and unrelenting pace. However, most current books are densely written and contain far more material than residents need to know. Moreover, the number, variety and quality of images is often limited. What Radiology Residents Need to Know: Breast Imaging answers these needs by presenting the important information in bullet fashion, divided into convenient sub-units, such as "clinical information," "imaging findings" and "management." This book covers such topics as breast cancer, benign breast disease, image-guided interventions, pregnant and lactating patients, transgender patients, and male breast disease. In addition, it contains tips on approaching and interpreting mammography, breast ultrasound, and breast MRI studies based on decades of practical experience and teaching residents at the work station as well as a list of common differentials. With liberal use of illustrations in the text and an online bank of many more high-quality images, this book gives readers a comprehensive library of breast imaging scans and serves as an ideal guide for radiology residents.

Prostate Cancer from a Nuclear Oncology Perspective
Provisional text This book provides a comprehensive review of innovative diagnostic methods for prostate cancer, with a particular emphasis on the development of PET radiopharmaceuticals. The author has had the privilege to introduce several tracers into clinical routine practice, including Na18F, 18F-FCH, 18F-FACBC, 68Ga-PSMA11, 18F-PSMA-1007, and 18F-DCFPyL. Thus, indications in various prostate cancer subgroups are discussed in detail, weighing the pros and cons in clinical practice. In the authors織 practice radiation therapy has been more important and surgical applications; therefore, PET based dose planning is presented in detail. Furthermore, the author has closely followed the development of radiopharmaceutical treatments, particularly in the context of bone pain palliation using radiopharmaceuticals, such as 89SrCl2, 186ReHEDP, 153SmEDTMP, 117mSnDTPA, and 223RaCl2, and targeted treatments (177Lu-PSMSA-617, 177Lu-PSMA-I&T and 225Ac-PSMA). Thanks to his experience, the author facilitated the set-up of targeted treatments in various countries: Baltic and Nordic countries, elsewhere in Europe, North America (Canada), and Africa (e.g. Ghana). The author's involvement in promoting therapy tourism to Finland further highlights his breadth of knowledge and practical experience. This book offers valuable insights into the evolving landscape of diagnostic methods and radiopharmaceutical treatments for prostate cancer. With the author's extensive experience and contributions to the field, readers can gain a comprehensive understanding of these advancements and their implications in clinical practice.
Protection and Prevention Approaches in Occupational Health and Safety
Developments in working life have also brought about occupational health and safety (OHS) problems. While the development of technology and protective equipment has created a safer working environment over time, new risks that pose a danger have also emerged. OHS aims to prevent the deterioration of employees' health in all occupational groups, protect employees from the hazards and risks in the environment, and provide environments that will allow individuals to continue to work at the highest level physiologically and spiritually. To create an OHS culture, it is not enough to simply explain the importance of the subject to employees and society. In order to transform this awareness into behavior, more emphasis and importance should be given to resources that will ensure that employees act by OSH rules during all their activities. OHS is considered an important public health problem today, and the first thing that needs to be done to prevent occupational accidents and diseases is to maximize the current knowledge of all parties involved on this subject. Education in the context of occupational safety and health is designed to provide employees with knowledge and skills so that managers and employees in the business can recognize the risk factors that may cause work accidents, injuries and diseases and be prepared for the damages that may occur in their work environments. This book aims to contribute to the training of experts working on occupational health and safety, which is the intersection of many different disciplines, in light of up-to-date information on this subject. It also provides a resource that employees can always benefit from regarding workplace protection and prevention.
