Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging
It is a great privilege to introduce this book devoted to the current and future roles in research and clinical practice of another exciting new development in MRI: Diffusi- weighted MR imaging. This new, quick and non-invasive technique, which requires no contrast media or i- izing radiation, offers great potential for the detection and characterization of disease in the body as well as for the assessment of tumour response to therapy. Indeed, whereas DW-MRI is already ? rmly established for the study of the brain, progress in MR techn- ogy has only recently enabled its successful application in the body. Although the main focus of this book is on the role of DW-MRI in patients with malignant tumours, n- oncological emerging applications in other conditions are also discussed. The editors of this volume, Dr. D. M. Koh and Prof. H. Thoeny, are internationally well known for their pioneering work in the ? eld and their original contributions to the l- erature on DW-MRI of the body. I am very much indebted to them for the enthusiasm and engagement with which they prepared and edited this splendid volume in a record short time for our series Medical Radiology – Diagnostic section.
Radiological Imaging in Hematological Malignancies
One of the first book’s to deal specifically with imaging of the entire spectrum of hematological malignancies. The use of the latest imaging modalities is well described, and an important aspect of the book is the role of imaging techniques in differentiating between manifestations of the underlying disease and complications of treatment. Each of the 28 chapters is written by an internationally recognized expert, making this book the most current and complete treatment of this subject available. Includes many high-quality radiological and histological illustrations. It should be of great interest to radiologists and hematologists.
Extra-Cranial Applications of Diffusion-Weighted MRI
Continuous improvement in MRI technology in recent years has led to the application of diffusion-weighted MR imaging in organ systems outside the brain. Extra-Cranial Applications of Diffusion-Weighted MRI provides an extensive review of current and future applications of this imaging modality by world-renowned experts. Organized by organ system, each chapter is highly illustrated, offering a balance of protocols, illustrations and principles of image interpretation. An initial chapter provides an overview of relevant physics and other technical details, followed by detailed chapters on all major body systems including liver, kidney, prostate, breast and spine. A final chapter discusses assessment of therapy response. Written and edited by leading DW-MRI experts worldwide, Extra-Cranial Applications of Diffusion-Weighted MRI is an invaluable resource for radiology trainees, practising radiologists and for researchers in a wide variety of disciplines.
Genitourinary MRI
One of the most dramatic changes in the application of MR imaging in the clinical evaluation of diseases throughout the body has been in the genitourinary system. This exciting new issue of MRI Clinics provides readers with an overview of the state-of-the-art in GU MR Imaging. Guest edited by Vivien Lee and Bachir Taouli, this issue covers such topics as: Diffusion and perfusion imaging of the kidneys, Advances in renal MRA, and MR imaging of uterine fibroids before and after UAE.

MR Imaging of Chronic Liver Diseases and Liver Cancer, An Issue of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, E-Book
Because the liver is a common site of metastatic spread, effective MR imaging of this organ is critically important for patients with cancer as well as those with chronic liver disease. In this issue of MRI Clinics, editors Khaled Elsayes (MD Anderson Cancer Center) and Claude Sirlin (UC San Diego Health's Liver Imaging Group) bring their considerable expertise to the topic of MR Imaging of Chronic Liver Diseases and Liver Cancer. Top experts in the field cover key topics such as artificial intelligence, diffuse liver disease, LI-RADS, and hepatocarcinogenesis. - Provides concise and comprehensive coverage of the issues physicians face every day. - Presents the latest information on a timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. - Contains 14 relevant, practice-oriented topics including Chronic liver disease; What the hepatologists, oncologists and surgeons want to know from radiologists; CT techniques, protocols, advancements and the future; Errors and misinterpretations in imaging of chronic liver diseases; and more.
Venous Embolization of the Liver
Venous Embolization of the Liver: Radiologic and Surgical Practice explores the theoretical advantages and clinical implications for utilizing Venous Embolization techniques, including portal vein and hepatic vein embolization. The practice of venous embolization of the liver was originally developed in Japan by Dr. Makuuchi (one of the co-editors of this book) in 1990 and since then, the techniques reviewed in this book are practiced throughout the world and are now considered the “standard of care” at many hepatobiliary centres worldwide. Venous Embolization of the Liver: Radiologic and Surgical Practice covers a multitude of topics, including: pertinent vascular (microscopic and macro...

Focal Therapy in Prostate Cancer
This book comprehensively reviews the potential of focal therapy and discusses why the changing face of prostate cancer warrants a change in the way we treat men with the disease. It deals with the mechanisms by which disease can be localized within the gland and then the different technologies used for focal ablation. Bringing together eminent contributors in one accessible reference, this book introduces focal therapy to all urologists, oncologists, and radiologists who are involved in the treatment of men with prostate cancer.
