The spectrum of neuroendocrine lung tumours ranges from highly aggressive small cell carcinomas (SCLC) to carcinoid tumours (CD) of low malignant potential. Between these two extremes, the 'well-differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas' (WDNEC) form a transitional group with uncertain biological beh
## Abstract The advent of both improved imaging systems and new radioactive agents has increased the effectiveness of nuclear medicine in diagnosing and treating diseases of the head and neck. In this second of two articles, we discuss radionuclide bone imaging and the role of nuclear medicine in t
