About this book

Radiology Illustrated: Gastrointestinal Tract is the second of two volumes designed to provide clear and practical guidance on the diagnostic imaging of abdominal diseases. The book presents approximately 300 cases with 1500 carefully selected and categorized illustrations of gastrointestinal tract diseases, along with key text messages and tables that will help the reader easily to recall the relevant images as an aid to differential diagnosis. Essential points are summarized at the end of each text message to facilitate rapid review and learning. Additionally, brief descriptions of each clinical problem are provided, followed by case studies of both common and uncommon pathologies that illustrate the roles of the different imaging modalities, including ultrasound, radiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.

Reviews

“This book on gastrointestinal imaging has excellent images and a good variety of case collections. … The intended audience is radiology residents and general diagnostic radiology practitioners who have an interest in GI radiology. … This book definitely has a role as an excellent reference for board preparation as well as a guide to keep in a GI radiologist's personal library. … Its excellent endoscopic and pathology images distinguish it from other, similar books.” (Jayanth H. Keshavamurthy, Doody’s Book Reviews, September, 2015)

“This is a book on the radiology of the GI tract, including the mesentery, peritoneum and the abdominal wall. … this is overall an excellent book, with concise but comprehensive text followed by very good illustrations including histopathology and endoscopy images, which are an essential part of GI radiology. It is aimed at radiology trainees and established radiologists, as well as clinicians with an interest in GI imaging.” (Zahir Amin, RAD Magazine, July, 2015)
