This book encompasses the different technologies employed in thermal ablation, its indications and the results achieved in various clinical conditions. It clearly explains the basics of thermal ablative techniques. In the main part of the book, techniques of guiding the applicators to the target structures by use of different imaging tools are discussed. The book, written by acknowledged experts, has a lucid structure and excellent images.
Written by internationally renowned experts, this volume is a collection of chapters dealing with imaging diagnosis and interventional therapies in neuroradiology and diseases of the spine. The different topics are disease-oriented and encompass all the relevant imaging modalities including X-ray technology, nuclear medicine, ultrasound and magnetic resonance, as well as image-guided interventional techniques. It represents a unique experience for residents in radiology as well as for experienced radiologists wishing to be updated on the current state of the art.
One of the most amazing and spectacular developments in modern radiology has been the rapid growth and expansion of so-called interventional radiology, which can also be described as minimally invasive therapy guided by radiological imaging. Many applications of this method are now widely in use in different organs, particularly in the vascular system. Everybody is well aware of the shortcomings and drawbacks of the radiological modalities currently used for guiding minimally invasive procedures. Ultrasound, although it has the advantage of being absolutely harmless to the patient and the operator, cannot be used for many procedures because it does not provide the precise anatomical informat...
Interventional radiology is an indispensable and still expanding area of modern medicine that encompasses numerous diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The revised and extended second edition of this volume covers a broad range of non-vascular interventions guided by CT or MR imaging. Indications, materials, techniques, and results are all carefully discussed. A particularly comprehensive section is devoted to interventional oncology as the most rapidly growing branch of interventional radiology. In addition, detailed information is provided that will assist in establishing and developing an interventional service. This richly illustrated book will be a most valuable source of information and guidance for all radiologists who deal with non-vascular procedures.
A step-by-step approach to 55 procedures This companion to the best-selling Teaching Atlas of Interventional Radiology: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Angiography covers the latest techniques in the field of interventional radiology used to treat non-vascular diseases. Each case begins with a discussion of critical aspects of the disease process and differential diagnoses to teach you how to quickly recognize the presentation of diseases and disorders. The atlas guides you through all stages of management, from initial diagnosis to determining best method of treatment and the therapeutic options available. Highlights: 55 procedures for the neck and thorax; the abdomen, including the gastrointest...
