Description
Book SynopsisThis case-based atlas presents images depicting the findings typically observed when imaging a variety of common and uncommon diseases in the pediatric age group. The cases are organized according to anatomic region, covering disorders of the brain, spinal cord, head and neck, chest, cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal system, genitourinary system, and musculoskeletal system. Cases are presented in a form resembling teaching files, and the images are accompanied by concise informative text. The goal is to provide a diagnostic reference suitable for use in daily routine by both practicing radiologists and radiology residents or fellows. The atlas will also serve as a teaching aide and a study resource, and will offer pediatricians and surgeons guidance on the clinical applications of pediatric imaging.
Trade Review“This book would be a good addition to any reference collection, for radiology trainees or general radiologists who deal with some subspecialist paediatric radiology. It covers all areas of paediatric radiology and the associated pathologies.” (Benjamin Pinkey, RAD Magazine, August, 2015)
