- Summary:
- With this atlas of 193 cases, Parker (diagnostic radiology and internal medicine, VCU Medical Center) et al. help radiology residents, fellows, and practitioners improve their diagnostic skills by showing them how to interpret radiologic cases of a range of chest conditions. Sections address normal thoracic anatomy, developmental anomalies, airways disease, atelectasis, pulmonary infections and aspiration pneumonia, neoplastic disease, thoracic trauma, diffuse lung disease, occupational lung disease, adult cardiovascular disease, abnormalities of the mediastinum, and pleura, chest wall, and diaphragm. In a bulleted format, each case discusses the disease, its underlying pathology, typical and unusual imaging findings, management, and prognosis. This edition has more multiplanar, computed tomography angiographic (CTA), magnetic resonance imaging, and 3D imaging; 40 new cases and updated images; a new post-thoracotomy chest section; the new TNM staging system for lung cancer; discussion of the new classification system of mediastinal lymph nodes, adenocarcinoma and bronchioloalveolar cell carcinoma, and thymoma; discussion of univentricular and biventricular or end-stage heart failure, including various ventricular assist devices and the Total Artificial Heart, their imaging features, and complications; inclusion of an approach to high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) interpretation; more CT in the pulmonary infections section; and discussion of H1N1 infection and parasitic diseases. Online access to 250 cases is included. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
