CT Colonography Atlas
This easy-to-use atlas comprises a collection of representative common and unusual virtual colonoscopy (CT colonography, CTC) cases that physicians and radiologists may expect to encounter during their clinical practice. The atlas reflects the important recent advances in image acquisition, patient preparation, and image processing and is thus completely up-to-date. Each case is presented with the native CT images, integrated images obtained by 3D image processing, and colonoscopic correlation. Topics covered include normal appearances, anatomical variants, pitfalls, diverticula, lipomas, inflammatory bowel disease, polyps, flat lesions, cancers, and the postsurgical colon. By presenting the main features of anatomy and pathology, this atlas will serve as an invaluable tool both for radiologists performing CTC and for clinicians who need to review the CTC examinations of their patients.
Structured Reporting in Radiology
This book provides practitioners and scientists with insights into diverse aspects of structured reporting to allow them to develop tools and a knowledge base to ensure that this electronic reporting trend is widely applied. After an introduction to reporting in radiology, various parts of structured reporting are discussed in detail, including an overview of standardized reporting systems, standardized reporting language, DICOM structured reporting, template based structured reporting, and modular reporting. The last chapter addresses the interaction of structured reporting with artificial intelligence and its impact on the future of radiology. The last chapter addresses the interaction of structured reporting with artificial intelligence and its impact on the future of radiology. Endorsed by the European Society of Medical Imaging Informatics (EuSoMII), the scope of the book is based on the Medical Imaging Informatics sub-sections of the European Society of Radiology (ESR) European Training Curriculum Level I and II. It is a valuable resource for residents, radiologists and students.
Medicine Meets Virtual Reality 18
Since the debut of the Medicine Meets Virtual Reality (MMVR) conference in 1992, MMVR has served as a forum for researchers harnessing IT advances for the benefit of patient diagnosis and care, medical education and procedural training. At MMVR, virtual reality becomes a theatre for medicine, where multiple senses are engaged - sight, sound and touch - and language and image fuse. Precisely because this theatre is unreal, it is a valuable tool: the risks of experimentation and failure are gone, while the opportunity to understand remains. Improvement of this tool, through steady technological progress, is the purpose of MMVR. This book presents papers delivered at the MMVR18 / NextMed confer...
Deep Vein Thrombosis
This book provides a comprehensive review of deep vein thrombosis. There are chapters on risk factors for DVT, post thrombotic syndrome and its management, vena cava malformation as a new etiological factor and thrombosis in the upper limbs. DVT is usually seen in patients undergoing major surgeries. The guidelines for thrombo-prophylaxis in orthopaedic patients, radical pelvic surgeries, laparoscopic operations and risks versus benefits in regions with a low prevalence of DVT are thoroughly addressed. Cancer and its treatment are recognized risk factors for VTE and extended prophylaxis in ambulatory cancer patients is reviewed. The role of imaging and endovascular therapies in acute DVT, hypercoagulabilty in liver diseases and the challenges in developing countries are discussed.
Advances in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Applications for the Imaging of Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors
Increasing interest in the development and validation of quantitative imaging biomarkers for oncologic imaging has in recent years inspired a surge in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Initial results showed promise in identifying potential markers of treatment response, malignant potential, and prognostic predictors, among others; however, while many of these early algorithms showed the optimistic ability to separate pathologic states on “in-house” datasets, it was often the case that these classifiers generalized poorly on external validation sets and thus were of limited utility in the clinical setting. This issue was additionally compounded by the frequent use of data filtering and feature selection techniques in many studies to further bolster the machine learning results in limited case scenarios, thereby biasing the overall fit and further reducing generalizability.
MR Angiography of the Body
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) continues to undergo exciting technological advances that are rapidly being translated into clinical practice. It also has evident advantages over other imaging modalities, including CT angiography and ultrasonography. With the aid of numerous high-quality illustrations, this book reviews the current role of MRA of the body. It is divided into three sections. The first section is devoted to issues relating to image acquisition technique and sequences, which are explored in depth. The second and principal section addresses the clinical applications of MRA in various parts of the body, including the neck vessels, the spine, the thoracic aorta and pulmonary vessels, the heart and coronary arteries, the abdominal aorta and renal arteries, and peripheral vessels. The final section considers the role of MRA in patients undergoing liver or pancreas and kidney transplantation. This book will be an invaluable aid to all radiologists who work with MRA.
Elementi di tomografia computerizzata
L’avvento della tomografia computerizzata (TC) ha rivoluzionato la diagnostica per immagini degli ultimi trent’anni e, in particolare, i suoi più recenti sviluppi tecnologici le hanno aperto prospettive di impiego fino a poco fa impensabili. Scopo di questo volume è illustrare in modo sintetico quanto rigoroso i principi fisici e tecnici della formazione e dell’elaborazione delle immagini TC, ponendo particolare attenzione alle problematiche dosimetriche.
La dose al paziente in diagnostica per immagini
La recente e crescente attenzione da parte della letteratura scientifica e dei mezzi di comunicazione di massa sui possibili rischi correlati ad un aumento della dose richiede un aumento delle conoscenze relative alla radioprotezione. Obiettivo del presente testo è illustrare la problematica della dose erogata al paziente nei vari campi dell'imaging radiologico, ponendo attenzione sia agli aspetti fisico-tecnologici sia agli aspetti etico-sociali.
