This is an introduction to the use of modern imaging techniques in diagnosing neurological disease. Magnestic resonance imaing (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) have revolutionized radiological investigation and have been especially important in neuroradiology. Increasingly these techniques are being used outside specialist neurological centres and there is therefore a need for an introductory book highlighting thorough, cost-effective investigation. The book is divided into three parts. First, as an understanding of cerebral anatomy is the starting point in image interpretation, there is an anatomical atlas of CT and MRI images with explanatory line drawings of areas of anatomical complexity. Part 2 is an atlas of differential diagnoses summarizing the most common cerebral pathologies. Part 3 contains contributed chapters on the major categories of brain pathology in adults and children. Each chapter is extensively illustrated and referenced and provides state-of-the-art summary of neuroradiological diagnosis. A concluding chapter gives an overview of recent technical advances in cerebral imaging, including diffusion and perfusion imaging and spectroscopy. The book is primarily aimed at general radiologists and radiologists in training but will also provide an excellent introduction to modern neuroradiology for neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychiatrists and others with an interest in neuroimaging.

Diagnostic Imaging for the Emergency Physician, written and edited by a practicing emergency physician for emergency physicians, takes a step-by-step approach to the selection and interpretation of commonly ordered diagnostic imaging tests. Dr. Joshua Broder presents validated clinical decision rules, describes time-efficient approaches for the emergency physician to identify critical radiographic findings that impact clinical management and discusses hot topics such as radiation risks, oral and IV contrast in abdominal CT, MRI versus CT for occult hip injury, and more. Diagnostic Imaging for the Emergency Physician has been awarded a 2011 PROSE Award for Excellence for the best new publication in Clinical Medicine. - Consult this title on your favorite e-reader, conduct rapid searches, and adjust font sizes for optimal readability. - Choose the best test for each indication through clear explanations of the "how" and "why" behind emergency imaging. - Interpret head, spine, chest, and abdominal CT images using a detailed and efficient approach to time-sensitive emergency findings. - Stay on top of current developments in the field, including evidence-based analysis of tough controversies - such as indications for oral and IV contrast in abdominal CT and MRI versus CT for occult hip injury; high-risk pathology that can be missed by routine diagnostic imaging - including subarachnoid hemorrhage, bowel injury, mesenteric ischemia, and scaphoid fractures; radiation risks of diagnostic imaging - with practical summaries balancing the need for emergency diagnosis against long-terms risks; and more. - Optimize diagnosis through evidence-based guidelines that assist you in discussions with radiologists, coverage of the limits of "negative" or "normal" imaging studies for safe discharge, indications for contrast, and validated clinical decision rules that allow reduced use of diagnostic imaging. - Clearly recognize findings and anatomy on radiographs for all major diagnostic modalities used in emergency medicine from more than 1000 images. - Find information quickly and easily with streamlined content specific to emergency medicine written and edited by an emergency physician and organized by body system.

This atlas is a pocket manual of imaging diagnosis of the orbital. It includes common imaging techniques, normal imaging features, abnormal orbital imaging of developmental diseases, injury, inflammation, lymphoproliferative diseases, diseases of the eyeball, post-operative changes, vascular diseases, tumors and neuro-ophthalmological diseases. While it particularly focuses on CT and MRI, it also describes other techniques, such as X-ray, ultrasonography and nuclear imaging. The book starts with an overview of commonly used imaging techniques of the orbit a concise description of imaging features of normal orbit in X-ray, CT and MRI. The following nine chapters explore different orbital diseases and abnormalities that are common in clinical work. It is a valuable resource for radiologists and ophthalmologists.

This complete foundational text and reference covers the core curriculum for radiography students with vivid illustrations and thoroughly updated content. In the 4th edition of this highly-respected text, content is updated and modified to convey the pathology knowledge radiographers need at the appropriate comprehension level for better understanding. The book covers all of the essential information radiography students need, including disease processes, their radiographic appearance, and their treatment. Radiographers Notes in every chapter provide helpful suggestions for producing optimal radiographs for each organ system and teach students to deal effectively with varying patient needs. Thorough coverage of alternative imaging modalities encourages readers to think about other imaging modalities that may be needed to ensure proper diagnosis. Summary of diseases, their locations, their radiographic appearance, and treatment tables provide a review tool for students and a quick reference guide for practitioners. Treatment sections provide useful background on certain treatment and prognosis information for a more thorough understanding of pathology. Organized by body systems, information is easily located and convenient for studying one area at a time in a logical sequence. Written for radiographers, the text provides the most up-to-date, logically organized presentation of radiographic pathology available. Enhanced imaging appearances include multiple modalities such as SPECT, PET, CT, MR, ultrasound, and fusion. Now covers the pathology of hepatitis variations, SARS, anthrax, and Marfan's syndrome for more comprehensive information. An expanded discussion of how CT and MR are used to diagnose pathological processes helps students understand the benefits of using these scans. New and updated radiograph images of the newly added pathologies. More images for alternative modalities, including nuclear, ultrasound, PET, CT, and vascular imaging.
