Taylor & Francis Inc A Radiologic Atlas of Abuse Torture Terrorism and
Book SynopsisThe results of aggression against humans can be hideously obvious, but may also be entirely concealed from casual inspection. Often, only exploration of the hidden recesses of the mind via psychiatric evaluation, or radiologic exploration of the inner recesses of the body can reveal the evidence of such violence. This book focuses on the latter.A Radiologic Atlas of Abuse, Torture, Terrorism, and Inflicted Trauma combines the lifetime experience of two distinguished radiologists and a renowned odontologist to provide an unprecedented collection of radiographs depicting the results of violence on the human body.Victims of aggression range from the tiniest infant to entire populations. Hopefully you will never encounter every situation covered in this book. However, should you come across any, you will want A Radiologic Atlas of Abuse, Torture, Terrorism, and Inflicted Trauma within reach.Trade Review"[A] timely reference … . .. The outstanding feature of this atlas is its astonishing collection of over 700 radiographs and photographs… . … A radiologic catalog of this magnitude could only be found in the possession of distinguished and accomplished practitioners, and the editors are acknowledged as being among the leaders in their respective fields. … CRC Press produces a handsome volume, and this is no exception. … [T]he quality of these images is remarkable. … [Includes] new chapters on torture and terrorism that are a valuable resource for practicing anthropologists who rely heavily on radiographic imaging in their work … .

CRC Press Handbook of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular
Book SynopsisMathematical modelling is an important part of nuclear medicine. Therefore, several chapters of this book have been dedicated towards describing this topic. In these chapters, an emphasis has been put on describing the mathematical modelling of the radiation transport of photons and electrons, as well as on the transportation of radiopharmaceuticals between different organs and compartments. It also includes computer models of patient dosimetry. Two chapters of this book are devoted towards introducing the concept of biostatistics and radiobiology. These chapters are followed by chapters detailing dosimetry procedures commonly used in the context of diagnostic imaging, as well as patient-specific dosimetry for radiotherapy treatments. For safety reasons, many of the methods used in nuclear medicine and molecular imaging are tightly regulated. Therefore, this volume also highlights the basic principles for radiation protection.

Lippincott Williams and Wilkins Fundamentals of HighResolution Lung CT
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis book covers high-resolution CT and sufficiently covers the fundamental concepts to interpret these examinations. Multiple figures depict examples of each topic and tables appear throughout each chapter, providing a list of differentials. The first edition was published in 2012.The purpose is to outline four basic principles used in HRCT that are essential in helping to interpret these exams. These are worthy goals set out by the authors, and they accomplish them by providing an in-depth analysis that includes a constellation of HRCT findings, their clinical significance, and their relationship to differential diagnoses, as well as a basic knowledge of lung diseases and their associated findings.The book meets the needs of the intended audience of radiology residents and attendings. The authors are both experts in their fields.This book thoroughly covers lung diseases and their associated HRCT findings, effectively accomplishing this by providing an overabundance of highly detailed images depicting examples of each topic. Adjacent to each topic is a useful table of differential diagnoses to consider. The most useful aspect of this book is the use of classic denoted images that provide representative depictions of each disease. Along with this, at the beginning of the book, each chapter is outlined with key details and images that represent some of the important topics in the chapter. This outline is an extremely useful study guide/quick reference.Overall, this is a useful, easy-to-read, thorough guide to HRCT. This updated edition justifies replacing the previous edition by providing the essential classic images of lung diseases in each chapter and by providing a useful and necessary detailed outline at the beginning of the book.Weighted Numerical Score: 95 - 4 Stars!

Springer Nature Switzerland AG The Rules of Radiology
Book SynopsisThis book gets to the heart of what radiology is and what radiologists do. As a relatively young speciality, there is no guide for radiologists to act as a moral compass. Until now, that is. You will not find any dry technical matters in here. You will not find any clues about how to interpret images better. This book details the ‘other 50%’: the rest of the working week when a radiologist is not reading scans or performing procedures. The essence of radiology is distilled and offered up to the reader. If you want a comfortable read that offers bland reassurances, look elsewhere. If you want a book that questions everything and discusses uncomfortable truths, this is the book for you. Each of the Rules addresses an important part of professional practice. This book is a manifesto for all radiologists across the globe to raise their game, to be more effective and to serve their patients better. Trade Review“The book will inevitably appeal mainly to radiologists and their trainees, or to people who have a spouse, partner or child who is aspires to become one. All the same, there is at least one good reason GPs might be interested in it – apart from its arresting style of writing and sense of humour.” (John Launer, bjgplife.com, December 21, 2021)“McCoubrie has managed to channel this compulsion into the production of a readable, witty tome with pearls of wisdom gleaned from years of experience, a tome that would be profitably read by us all.” (Arpan Banerjee, RAD Magazine, July, 2021)“This book deals with the pressures and challenges of work, not only the work that we, various specialists, carry out but the more complex business of working in teams, personal relations, and group dynamics. A very good read for many reasons and one that can give us a new perspective.” (Eric Watts, The Association of Clinical Pathologists, ACP news, April, 2021)“It looks at many complex aspects of radiology practice, analyzes the reasons why these can be troubling or successful, and it advises on how we should approach them. Many years ago, when I worked on another continent, a colleague suggested that a copy of the radiology billing codes should be kept in the smallest room of the house … . This book is much more appropriate reading in that location -- and much more fun.” (Adrian Brady, AuntminnieEurope.com, March 25, 2021)Table of ContentsRule #1 / / Obey the Rules.- Rule #2 / / Smile .- Rule #3 / / Keep your cool.- Rule #4 / / Work hard.- Rule #5 / / Toughen Up.- Rule #6 / / Respect the machines.- Rule #7 / / Never let a clinician play radiologist .- Rule #8 / / Forgive the sins of the clinician.- Rule #9 / / Don’t be too approachable.- Rule #10 / / Be a good colleague.- Rule #11 / / Never measure anything.- Rule #12 / / Never count anything.- Rule #13 / / The default is to say ‘yes’.- Rule #14 / / Agitation is not an indication.- Rule #15 / / Always help the patient.- Rule #16 / / Be damned careful when saying an outright ‘no’.- Rule #17 / / Don’t study surrogates.- Rule #18 / / Avoid ‘interesting’ cases.- Rule #19 / / Beware the ‘fit 90 year old’.- Rule #20 / / Counteract misjudgement.- Rule #21 / / There is no such thing as a radiological emergency.- Rule #22 / / If you feel resistance, stop pushing.- Rule #23 / / Use words carefully.- Rule #24 / / Brevity is king.- Rule #25 / / Ditch the stethoscope.- Rule #26 / / CT is easy.- Rule #27 / / Don’t answer the phone.- Rule #28 / / Stay safe the easy way.- Rule #29 / / Get off the fence.- Rule #30 / / Don’t pick fights.- Rule #31 / / Beware the ‘good’ case.- Rule #32 / / Don’t fret about complications.- Rule #33 / / We are not the business of exclusion.- Rule #34 / / Trust your clinical instincts.- Rule #35 / / If you have to fail, fail safely.- Rule #36 / / Take clinical details with a pinch of salt.- Rule #37 / / Don’t crap on juniors.- Rule #38 / / Aggressive clinicians need your help.- Rule #39 / / Know loads.- Rule #40 / / Never offer to eat your pants.- Rule #41 / / Radiologists don't wear suede shoes.-Rule #42 / / Never investigate on the day of discharge.- Rule #43 / / Only give clinicians 15 seconds.- Rule #44 / / You can never know too much anatomy.-Rule #45 / / Be careful with "limited" or "quick" studies.- Rule #46 / / Image quality is up to the radiologist.- Rule #47 / / It is never a chordoma.- Rule #48 / / Reporting rooms should be pitch black.- Rule #49 / / Don't touch the screens.- Rule #50 / / Error is inherent to radiology.

Springer International Publishing AG CT Colonography for Radiographers: A Guide to
Book SynopsisThis second edition, comprising 28 chapters, explains every aspect of the role of radiographers in performing CT colonography (CTC) and interpreting CTC images with the aim of enabling radiographers to extend the scope of their practice. It provides information required with respect to communication with the patient, procurement of informed consent, the principles of CT as well as dual-energy CT and photon counting CT, radiation dose, patient preparation and positioning, the use of contrast media, the performance of diagnostic and screening CTC studies, the interpretation and reporting of images, legal and professional requirements, and the importance of clinical audits.A wide range of CTC findings is described and depicted, covering normal anatomy, artefacts, haemorrhoids, polyps, colon cancer, diverticular disease, lipomas, extracolonic structures, opportunistic screening for osteoporosis and metabolic associated fatty disease, and CTC in incomplete or failed colonoscopy. The role of other modalities such as ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and nuclear medicine in colorectal cancer patients is discussed. In addition, the text covers the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning in imaging of the colon for the detection of polyps, diagnosis and staging of colorectal cancer. Lastly, a chapter focusing on self-assessment of image interpretation will aid learning.This book provides the support that radiographers need in order to perform CTC studies to the standard required in terms of advances in imaging and interpretation of images.

Thieme Publishing Group Normal Findings in Radiography
Book SynopsisThe method of making findings and the systematic method of interpreting images are still relevant today. This book deals with a subject that is seemingly trivial: normal findings in radiology. However, the normal is also the frequent, but not always the simple. Every radiologist has experienced difficulties in the systematics of imaging and with phrasing the diagnosis. This book is intended to answer three questions: How should the diagnosis be phrased? Which general scheme can I use to evaluate an image; how can I check for the degree of normality? Which data allow me to evidence normality, and what measurements should be taken? In spite of the introduction of digital X-ray imaging, the interpretation of conventional X-rays has not basically changed during the past ten years, which is evidenced by the development of this book. Since its first publication in 1987, it has gone through several unchanged reprints. In the 2nd German edition the text has hardly been changed; however, several new images have been added. The method of making findings and the systematic method of interpreting images are still relevant today. Consequently, the strict and systematic organization of the book was left unchanged. The new layout leads to a clearer accessibility of the material for the reader.Table of ContentsThe Skull The Spine The Upper Extremity The Lower Extremity Stress Radiographs Other Plain Films Spot Film Radiography Conventional Tomography Contrast Examinations of the Gastrointestinal Tract Intravenous Contrast Studies Arthrography Arteriography Venography Special Examinations

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG ACR BI-RADS®-Atlas der Mammadiagnostik:
Book SynopsisDieses Buch ist die offiziell genehmigte, deutsche Übersetzung des ACR BI-RADS®-Atlas in seiner fünften Auflage. Der ACR BI-RADS®-Atlas ist ein qualitätssicherndes Werkzeug zur Standardisierung des Berichtswesens, der Unklarheiten in der Befundung der Mammadiagnostik wie auch bei den Vorschlägen zum weiteren Vorgehen verringern soll. Er macht die Ergebnisse von Instituten wie auch von einzelnen Befundern vergleichbarer und leichter kontrollierbar und verbessert somit die Versorgungsqualität für die Patientinnen. Inhalt: Der ACR BI-RADS®-Atlas umfasst das Spektrum der in der Praxis etablierten und wissenschaftlich fundierten Bildgebung der Mamma und besteht aus vier Teilen Mammografie, Sonographie der Mamma, Magnetresonanztomografie der Mamma sowie Nachkontrolle und Ergebnisüberwachung, in dem das klinisch relevante Audit und das erweiterte Audit der medizinischen Qualitätskontrolle erläutert werden. Nach einem jeweils einführenden Kapitel zu den drei bildgebenden diagnostischen Methoden folgt ein Atlasteil mit klaren Angaben zu den diagnostischen Kriterien wie Form, Rand, Verkalkungen, Kriterien der Kontrastmittelaufnahme etc., die sich durch klare Definitionen und einheitliche Benennungen auszeichnen. Für jedes Beschreibungskriterium wird hochqualitatives Bildmaterial gezeigt. Danach erläutert jeweils ein Kapitel, wie ein Befund erstellt werden sollte. Ziel ist es, anhand einer klaren und eindeutigen Diktion ohne adjektivische Ausschmückungen die Malignitätswahrscheinlichkeit einer Veränderung einzustufen, die sog. Festlegungskategorien 0-6 nach BI-RADS®, und auf dieser Grundlage ebenso klare Handlungsempfehlungen zur weiteren Aufarbeitung auszusprechen, die vom Vergleich mit Voraufnahmen über weitere bildgebende Diagnostik bis zur Empfehlung der Gewebediagnose mittels Biopsie reichen. Eingehend werden die Unterschiede von Screening- und diagnostischen Kategorisierungen abgehandelt. Der Leser findet jeweils im Kapitel "Hilfestellung" praktischen Rat zur Anwendung der deskriptiven Terminologie der einzelnen Verfahren, zur richtigen Verwendung der BI-RADS® Kategorien und zur Konkordanz von Befund und Handlungsempfehlung, abgeschlossen durch ein Schlusskapitel mit häufig gestellten Fragen und den Antworten darauf. Am Ende der diagnostischen Kapitel stehen komprimierte Formblätter, die dem Leser als Vorlage zu seinem Befundungssystem dienen können. Damit geht dieses Buch weit über den Rahmen eines Atlas hinaus, es ist eine große normative Hilfe für alle Probleme der Screening- und der diagnostischen Bildgebung.Trade Review“... Es findet sich hochqualitatives Bildmaterial für jedes Beschreibungskriterium. … Ein gelungenes und umfassendes Werk, das mit den ausführlichen Erläuterungen, den Hilfestellungen am Ende eines jeden Kapitels sowie dem neu eingefügten Teil IV „Hilfestellung" weit über den Rahmen eines Atlas hinausgeht.
