Radiology for Surgeons in Clinical Practice (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This highly practical text is aimed at surgeons - both consultants and those in training who are interested in the advancing role played by imaging technology within surgical decision making. Cross-sectional imaging is now widely available and is routinely used to evaluate patients who potentially require surgery. It is therefore essential that the surgeons have a fundamental knowledge of the imaging findings of the main surgical pathologies. The book is in two sections, with the first part describing the principles of imaging, and the different imaging techniques available to the surgeon. The second part of the book is symptom-based rather than organ-based, with the aim of providing a practical hands-on approach to imaging patients with common surgical complaints. Written by leading experts in the field, this book will help the surgeon to better understand the imaging options available to them, and choose the correct modalities using a problem-based approach.
