Featuring 1,785 CT and MRI images and 460 cases from leading medical centers, CT and MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvi Second edition is a comprehensive teaching-file atlas covering virtually all abdominal and pelvic diseases.
Cases are presented as unknowns in a consistent format:
- a brief clinical history
- several images
- relevant findings
- differential diagnosis
- final diagnosis
- and a discussion
This format helps readers hone their diagnostic reasoning skills and offers excellent preparation for radiology board exams.
This edition includes 245 brand-new cases, new images for 190 cases, and a new abdominal wall chapter. Images reflect state-of-the-art technologies, including multidetector row CT, 3D reformatted images, and breath-hold MRI sequences.
