Radiology and Imaging For Medical Students

Product Description

Chest Radiology: Plain Film Patterns and Differential Diagnoses, 6^th Edition, by James C Reed, MD, provides expert guidance on interpretation of the most often seen radiologic patterns of chest disease. The new edition continues to emphasize pattern recognition on plain film — with correlative CT, MR and other important modalities included where appropriate. Each pattern is introduced with radiographs followed by a series of questions, tables of differential diagnosis, and discussions of the most likely diseases to present with such a pattern. The discussion sections emphasize the importance of clinical correlation to narrow down the differential diagnosis, and what follow-up tests are indicated to definitively confirm a diagnosis. New high-quality digital images and updated questions enhance the latest edition of this trusted reference.

• Get all you need to know about the fundamentals of plain film chest radiology as well as CT, MR, and other important modalities.
• Overcome clinical challenges with guidance about the pitfalls of plain film radiography, and indications for CT, HRCT, biopsy, and other procedures.

• Use comparative image study to master pattern recognition and improve your understanding of the correlation between findings on plain film, CT, MR, and more.
• See imaging findings as they appear in practice and discern subtle nuances found in new, high-quality digital images.
• Test your knowledge with illustrated case studies and quizzes featuring newly written questions that address the challenges seen in practice today.

Master pattern recognition of plain films with newest edition of this key resource updated with high quality digital images and the ability to compare results with CT images.

Head and Neck Radiology

Product Description
Radiology plays a central role in diagnosis, management and even treatment of a patient’s condition. The increasing importance of radiology in clinical medicine has led to the inclusion of the subject in medical school curricula worldwide. Most radiology teaching for medical students is conducted around films of real patients on the ward or in tutorial groups within the radiology department itself and, by reflecting this method of learning, the approach of this book will be familiar to students studying radiology at undergraduate level. The book adopts a systemic approach to cover the commonest clinical problems that are encountered on the wards, in tutorials and in examinations. Clear radiographs are each presented with brief reports and an accompanying discussion of the diagnosis, differential diagnosis and potential further investigations. This new edition is enhanced with many new images, and all are now clearly labelled and arrowed to highlight significant diagnostic features.
