Presented in an atlas format, this work contains computer tomograms, which are placed alongside related line drawings so that readers can learn and apply diagnostic skills. It provides basic anatomical information and also includes chapters on physics, equipment and contrast media. It serves as a source for radiologists, physicians and surgeons.
Since the second edition of this highly successful book was published in 1992, the field has been revolutionized by developments in hardware and software for CT units and new contrast media, leading to shorter examination times, enhanced image quality and increased patient comfort. Foremost amongst these technical advances have been the introduction of spiral CT and ultrafast CT. All of these changes and more are now included in the third edition, making "Whole Body Computed Tomography" the indispensable reference for radiologists, surgeons and internists. The third edition is presented in an atlas format and has been expanded to include more than 1500 images, most of which are new to this edition and are of the very highest quality. Computer tomograms are placed alongside related line drawings so that readers can learn and apply diagnostic skills. The computer-animated graphics make it possible to reproduce CTs photgraphically with high precision. And, while the whole book has been updated, the kidney chapter has doubled in size, and a chapter on the techniques of computed tomography has been added.
In addition to the basic anatomical information, chapters on physics, equipment and contrast media are included. Each organ of the body cavity is examined in terms of anatomy and imaging, and examination technique: special emphasis is placed on scan both with and without the latest contrast media. Clinical conditions are described step-by-step, with CT findings immediately following. This systematic presentation of material facilitates information-searching, making "Whole Body Computed Tomography" an invaluable educational tool for beginners and an indispensable source for the experienced radiologist, physician and surgeon. "...this textbook is excellent...high quality images and up to date references" - "British Journal of Radiology". "...recommended..." - "The Radiographer". "...undoubtedly excellent...well worthwhile..." - "Clinical Radiology".
