Research Methods in Radiology
Thieme Medical Publishers Inc (Verlag)
978-1-60406-826-9 (ISBN)
Given the vast amount of published information on research methodology and statistics in radiology, the authors' goal was to write a high-yield review and study tool rather than a comprehensive book. Key topics are succinctly addressed in each chapter, including measurements in radiology; decision analysis in radiology; and systemic reviews, evidence-based imaging, and knowledge translation. Online exercises related to each topic enable residents to prepare for radiology board examinations and research radiologists to apply knowledge to clinical studies.
Key Highlights
Introductory chapters on analysis of diagnostic tests, linear and logistic regression, meta-analysis, statistical inference, and economic evaluation provide easy-to-follow tutorials
Each chapter includes learning objectives, basic concepts, supplementary tables, and ancillary online material
Case studies with images, graphs, and tables highlight primary "take home" points
Sample size calculations are illustrated for a wide range of research questions
Code is included for use in R, free open-source software for statistical analysis
This book is an indispensable review of research methodology for radiology students and residents. Practicing clinicians will also benefit from this precisely focused reference tool on clinical and experimental research.
