Authored by one of the world's preeminent authorities in its field, this new book represents today's best single source of guidance on chest diagnostic imaging! It presents more details for each diagnosis • more representative images • more case data • and more current references than any other reference tool. At the same time, its user-friendly format lets readers access all of this information remarkably quickly! Not only does DI: Chest cover the lung • mediastinum • pleura • chest wall • and diaphragm, this new book includes a number of special topics such as atelectasis • trauma • lung cancer • portable ICU • and more!
• Covers the top diagnoses in chest imaging, including both common and uncommon entities.
• Provides exquisitely reproduced imaging examples for every diagnosis-plus concise, bulleted summaries of terminology • imaging findings • key facts • differential diagnosis • pathology • clinical issues • a diagnostic checklist • and selected references.
• Includes an extensive image gallery for each entity, depicting common and variant cases.
• Offers vivid, full-color anatomy and pathology drawings.
• Displays a "thumbnail" visual differential diagnosis for each entity.
Judd Gurney is a well-known teacher and author, and also hosts a very popular website on chest imaging. For this volume on the chest he has assembled an impressive list of contributors from North America and Europe.
The format of the text book will be familiar to many radiologists. The text is organized into five sections entitled Lungs, Mediastinum, Pleura - chest wall - diaphragm, Special topics, Patterns. Each page is illustrated with high-quality radiographs and rather less frequent, but excellent and informative, coloured schematics.
This book will certainly be heavily used in most reporting sessions by old hands and trainees alikeand will be a great source of information. It succeeds completely in achieving exactly what was intended at the outset.
