About this book
Case Studies in Abdominal and Pelvic Imaging presents 100 case studies, covering both common every-day conditions of the abdomen and pelvis, as well as less common cases that junior doctors and radiologists in training should be aware of.
Compiled by experts in the field, Case Studies in Abdominal and Pelvic Imaging uses the most up-to-date and high quality images, including plain films, CT scans, MRI scans and the occasional nuclear medicine image where relevant.
Each case is presented in a pedagogical style, with 1-4 images and accompanying questions, followed by answers and further relevant images. This is then augmented by an explanation of the imaging and key teaching points with references for further reading, making this book a valuable learning guide in an accessible form.
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book is primarily structured as a case-based discussion of 100 cases constituting a balanced blend of conditions encountered routinely in day-to-day practice as well as rare disease conditions. … This compilation of cases is a good teaching resource for the authors’ intended audience, particularly the radiology residents, because it exposes them to simple and complicated cases generally encountered in a busy practice. … In summary, the book accomplishes its desired objective and certainly meets the expectations of residents, fellows, and practicing radiologists … .” (Avinash Kambadakone, Radiology, Vol. 364 (2), August, 2012)
