Auteur : Eisenberg Ronald L.
- Radiographer Notes provide helpful suggestions for producing optimal radiographs of each organ system, and include information on positioning and exposure factor adjustments for patients with specific conditions or handling requirements.
- Hundreds of high-quality illustrations cover all modalities, clearly demonstrating the clinical manifestations of different disease processes and providing a standard for the high-quality images needed in radiography practice.
- Discussion of widely used imaging modalitiesincludes the advantages and limitations of ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear medicine, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), and fusion imaging.
- Summary tables list the location and radiographic appearance of each disease as well as its treatment.
- Recommended imaging procedures are provided for each pathologic condition, along with the sequence for choosing and performing alternative imaging studies if necessary.
- Review questions help you assess your comprehension of the material in each chapter, with an answer key at the back of the book.
- Thorough explanations provide an understanding of the pathologies that can be diagnosed with medical imaging.
- Systems-based approach makes it easy to locate information and study one area at a time, helping you build an understanding of pathology.
- NEW! Updated Radiographer Notes are included at the beginning of each chapter.
- NEW! 30 new images are added, including CT scans pertaining to guidelines on detection of lung cancer.
- NEW! Coverage of A.I. (artificial intelligence) and personalized medicine is added to this edition.
