Systemic Vasculitis
The prompt diagnosis of systemic vasculitis is essential as a missed diagnosis can be disastrous. Imaging is of vital importance in achieving a correct diagnosis and in some cases also plays a role in endovascular treatment. In this book, the imaging features of the many different types of vasculitis are clearly demonstrated by means of numerous high-quality illustrations. All relevant imaging modalities are considered, and key distinctive characteristics are highlighted. In addition, each chapter discusses the etiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, biology, and treatment of the vasculitis in question. This book is the result of cooperation between expert teams from a range of countries. The wealth of illustrations and informative clinical case studies will prove invaluable for all who may be confronted with these problematic disorders.
Adrenal cancer
Adrenal Cortical Carcinoma is classically associated with a dismal prognosis. Yet its clinical presentation is changing (more and more classified as “incidentaloma”). New insights have emerged on its pathophysiological mechanisms (through the genetic elucidation of familial syndromes), and Reference Centers within National and European Networks are now offering more standardized and efficient multidisciplinary clinical management of these difficult patients. All these important aspects are described by experts in nine chapters dealing with epidemiology, prognosis, and clinical management, pathology, molecular pathophysiological mechanisms, modern imaging approaches, surgical and chemothe...
Cushing's Syndrome
Cushing ́s syndrome is a relatively rare clinical disorder that is associated with many co-morbidities such as systemic hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis, impaired immune function and growth impairment in children, all of which severely reduce quality of life and life expectancy. Cushing’s Syndrome: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Treatment reviews the difficulties in distinguishing Cushing’s syndrome from these and other common conditions, such as central obesity, menstrual irregularity and depression. It also provides state-of-the-art information on various strategies to establish the diagnosis of Cushing’s syndrome and the differential diagnosis among its diverse etiologies, as w...
Cushing's Disease
In Cushing’s Disease, leading authorities in the field offer a thorough review of the pathogenesis, diagnostic algorithm and treatment options for this complex disease. Beginning with a fascinating history of Cushing's disease that outlines its historical significance to both endocrinology and neurosurgery, the book goes onto to cover the full range of important issues, including the molecular pathogenesis of Cushing’s, anatomic pathology, the diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome, the differential of pseudo-Cushing's syndromes, hypercortisolemia, surgical removal of the corticotroph adenoma, post-operative management and assessment of remission, radiotherapeutic options, and the exciting deve...
Radiology of the Pancreas
The 2nd edition of 'Radiology of the Pancreas'discusses and illustrates the normal radiological anatomy of the pancreas and the radiological features presented by both common and uncommon diseases. The role of the newest imaging modalities is fully considered. All the authors are recognized experts, and the book should be of value to all radiologists and other specialists with an interest in the field.
IRM en pratique clinique
L'accès des patients à l'expertise radiologique en IRM reste un enjeu majeur. Trop longtemps contraintes et limitées, les installations d'IRM sont en augmentation ces dernières années. En parallèle, les champs de la médecine évoluent : nombre de maladies précédemment connues comme des atteintes dites « d'organe » doivent désormais être prises en charge de manière beaucoup plus globale. Ainsi en est-il à titre d'exemple des cancers naturellement, mais également des maladies vasculaires, dont les conséquences neurologiques, cardiaques, ou viscérales doivent être appréhendées à l'échelle du corps entier. L'IRM doit désormais être envisagée comme un outil de prise en c...
Intracranial Stereotactic Radiosurgery
In this third edition of Intracranial Stereotactic Radiosurgery, Drs. Sheehan and Lunsford provide an updated assessment of the practice of stereotactic radiosurgery. Topics include benign and malignant tumors, cerebrovascular abnormalities, and functional disorders. Several new topics are now included and focus on immunotherapy, hypofractionation, and repeat radiosurgery. Each chapter contains key figures and tables to illustrate the critical concepts of the work. Contributors to the book represent many of the most prestigious stereotactic radiosurgery centers across the world. This book is comprised of 36 chapters and represents a comprehensive update to prior editions. It is intended to b...
Echographie de la Thyroïde
En thyroïdologie, l'examen d'imagerie de choix est l'échographie. Pendant longtemps, cette technique n'a été utilisée que pour mesurer des dimensions (taille du goitre, taille des nodules). Mais limiter l'échographie thyroïdienne à une simple technique de mesure est quelque peu réducteur. En effet, des informations fonctionnelles peuvent également être extraites des images ultrasonographiques.
