Teaching Atlas of Chest Imaging

This beautifully illustrated book is your comprehensive, hands-on guide to
evaluating chest images. It is ideal for reading cover-to-cover, or as a
reference of radiological presentations for common thoracic disorders. With this
book, you will learn to interpret chest images and recognize the imaging
findings, generate an appropriate differential diagnosis, and understand the
underlying disease process. The atlas begins with a review of normal thoracic
radiography, CT, and MR anatomy, and goes on to present cases on a wide range of
congenital, traumatic, and acquired thoracic conditions. Each case is supported
by a discussion of etiology, pathology, imaging findings, treatment, and
prognosis in a concise, bullet format to give you a complete clinical overview
of each disorder. More than 1,050 high-quality images demonstrate normal and
pathologic findings, and complementary scans demonstrate additional imaging
manifestations of disease entities. Residents, fellows, and general radiologists
called upon to interpret chest images will find this easy-to-use book invaluable
as a learning tool and reference. It is also a must for thoracic radiologists,
pulmonary physicians, and thoracic surgeons who must read chest images
--especially of challenging cases.
