MRI of the Female and Male Pelvis
Based on the experience of two Italian referral centers, the book depicts the characteristic findings obtained when using MR imaging to study the male and female pelvis including the obstetric applications. Each chapter provides a comprehensive account of the use of the imaging technique of examination, including the most recent advances in MR imaging, the anatomy and MR possibilities in the identification, characterization and staging of the different pelvic diseases highlighting its diagnostic possibilities. The advances in fetal MRI, representing the cutting edge of pelvic MR imaging, will also be depicted. The text is complemented by numerous illustrations, as well as clinical cases that make this a very practice-oriented work, presenting the role of diagnostic imaging in every-day clinical activity. The volume will prove an invaluable guide for both residents and professionals with core interest in gynecology, obstetrics and urology.
Inglese per radiologi
Inglese per radiologi si propone come strumento pratico ed efficace per il radiologo che desideri perfezionare le proprie competenze linguistiche e affrontare quindi con maggiore disinvoltura le diverse realtà del mondo medico-radiogico internazionale. Ricco di interessanti approfondimenti, il volume affronta i diversi aspetti e le molteplici applicazioni dell'inglese radiologico, fornendo utili suggerimenti per preparare un lavoro scientifico, per comprendere il significato di abbreviazioni e acronimi comunemente utilizzati nella lingua anglosassone, per presentare una relazione a un congresso internazionale o moderare una seduta scientifica. Una parte è inoltre dedicata alla pratica quotidiana, con particolare riguardo alla refertazione, nonché agli aspetti gestionali legati alla direzione di un dipartimento di radiologia. Dalla Prefazione di Roberto Pozzi Mucelli: "Sono convinto che il volume risponda validamente alle nuove e sempre più evidenti esigenze del mondo scientifico, nel quale la conoscenza dell'inglese è d'obbligo".
Imaging and Pathology of Pancreatic Neoplasms
Although interest in pancreatic pathology is very high in the radiological and gastroenterological communities, it is still the case that less is known about pathology of the pancreas than about liver pathology, for example. Diagnosis depends on the structure of the pancreatic lesion, which can be directly visualized on US, CT or MR images. This atlas, which encompasses both the imaging and the pathology of pancreatic neoplasms, will therefore be invaluable in enabling radiologists and sonographers to understand the underlying pathology and in allowing pancreatic pathologists to understand the imaging translation. The emphasis in the atlas is very much on the pathological and imaging appearances, with most of the text concentrated at the beginning of the chapters. A comprehensive overview is provided of typical and atypical presentations and diverse aspects of common and uncommon pancreatic neoplasms, including ductal adenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine neoplasms, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, cystic neoplasms, metastases and lymphoma.
Imaging of the Pancreas
Using numerous high-quality illustrations, this volume assesses strengths and limitations of techniques for the imaging of pancreatitis. Ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and interventional imaging are considered separately in the settings of acute and chronic pancreatitis, with an additional section on imaging of complications. The significance of the imaging findings for clinical and therapeutic decision making is clearly explained, and protocols are provided to help obtain the best possible images.
Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP)
This book, based on the experience of a single large referral center, presents the characteristic findings obtained when using MR imaging and MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) to image the biliary tree and pancreatic ducts in a variety of disease settings. An introductory chapter is devoted to technical considerations, anatomy, and developmental anomalies. Subsequent chapters then present in detail the MR imaging and MRCP findings observed in choledocholithiasis, inflammatory and neoplastic disorders of the bile ducts, acute and chronic pancreatitis (according to etiology), and different pancreatic neoplasms. Dynamic MRCP with secretin stimulation is also illustrated, documenting both normal and abnormal responses of the pancreatic duct system to secretin. Readers will find this book to be an excellent aid to the interpretation of MR imaging and MRCP findings in patients with biliary and pancreatic disease.
Clinical Applications of Cardiac CT
During the past few years, cardiac CT (CCT) has acquired an increasingly important role as a noninvasive imaging method that allows assessment of coronary heart disease from both the morphological and the functional standpoint. It is quickly becoming a primary clinical tool for the evaluation and follow-up of various conditions related to the heart and great vessels and is providing valuable insights into the natural history of atherosclerosis. The rapid advances in CCT technology, the advent of new clinical applications, and the acquisition of data on prognostic value are just some of the reasons for the publication of this new edition of Clinical Applications of Cardiac CT, little more tha...
Geriatric Imaging
In the elderly, the coexistence of various diseases, the presence of involutional and degenerative changes, and the occurrence of both physical and cognitive problems represent “the norm.” It is therefore important to know how to distinguish the healthy elderly from those in need of treatment as a sound basis for avoiding overdiagnosis and overtreatment. This aspect is a central theme in Geriatric Imaging, which covers a wide range of applications of different imaging techniques and clearly explains both the potential and the limitations of diagnostic imaging in geriatric patients. Individual sections are devoted to each major region or system of the body, and a concluding section focuses specifically on interventional procedures. The book, written by recognized experts in the field, is superbly illustrated and will be an ideal resource for geriatricians, radiologists, and trainees.
Uncommon Pancreatic Neoplasms
Uncommon tumors of the pancreas are of increasing interest for clinicians: cross imaging techniques development makes it possible to detect small lesions in the pancreatic gland of asymptomatic patients, and in the last decades a more detailed and specific pathological classification definitivelyopened an unexpected world of more or less rare pancreatic tumors. As a matter of fact, nowadays most surgical procedures deal with these so called uncommon pancreatic tumors such as cystic, endocrine and others unfrequent histotypes, and many patientsexperiencing an accidental discovery of this type of tumor need therefore a specialistic evaluation. The concept behind this volume is the need to give the correct clinical relevance to these “uncommon” tumors, that are ranked at the first place among pancreatic tumors, and that are definitively curable with a multimodal approach. Aim of the book is therefore to get clinicians closer to these pathologies, describing their complexity and the current state of the art in diagnostic, therapeutic and pathological classification strategy, thus providing them with the tools for a modern and updated clinical management of these patients.
Imaging dell'Apparato Urogenitale
La presente pubblicazione dedicata alla patologia non oncologica dell'Apparato Urogenitale nasce da un'idea del nucleo storico degli Uroradiologi italiani, in particolare del Prof. Antonio Rotondo, i quali si occupano da anni dell'argomento e che, sotto l'egida della Sezione di studio di radiologia urogenitale, hanno coinvolto autori, giovani e meno giovani, ma comunque rappresentativi degli addetti ai lavori, esperti di questa branca specialistica. Il testo intende fornire informazioni sullo stato dell'arte, che possano essere utili nella clinica, sia a chi pratica quotidianamente la disciplina sia a chi se ne occupa saltuariamente. L’opera è corredata da una ricca e significativa iconografia così come da schemi di semplificazione, che consentono di accedere rapidamente ai concetti fondamentali delle varie problematiche.
Radiology of the Upper Urinary Tract
The advent in recent years of several new imaging modalities for the application in diag nosis and patient management has had an unprecedented impact on patient care. By per mitting the acquisition of information without intervention, these new modalities have made the diagnostic process more humane. They have also made possible the treatment of many disorders of the upper and lower urinary tract by means of interventional tech niques, replacing a number of surgical procedures. The editor of this volume has engaged international experts in radiology to describe the state of the art of radio log y of the upper urinary tract. Local and regional abnormalities are covered, but so too is the invo...
