9781840760620: Thoracic Imaging: Self-assessment Colour Review

Synopsis

The chest radiograph is a ubiquitous first-line investigation in many acutely ill patients and accurate interpretation is often difficult. Radiographic findings may lead to the use of more sophisticated imaging techniques such as high resolution computed tomography (HRCT), helical or spiral CT and positive emission tomography (PET).
The 100 illustrated self-assessment cases presented randomly here - reflecting life in practice - range from the more simple and common to the complicated and esoteric.
The book will appeal to professionals in practice and training, from hospital-based doctors preparing for specialist examinations to established physicians and surgeons, specialist nurses and medical students.

Quatrième de couverture

This illustrated colour review contains 100 cases and covers a wide range of problems from basic radiographic cases including tuberculosis, pulmonary masses and mediastinal masses to more challenging cases including cystic fibrosis, asbestosis, sarcoidosis and alveolar cell carcinoma. The book is aimed at professionals in practice and in training, from hospital based doctors preparing for higher qualifications to established physicians in their continuing professional development. The cases are presented randomly, as in real life and, where appropriate, are superbly illustrated.
