From the Back Cover:
Edited by Stephen R. T. Evans, M.D., and Susan M. Ascher, M.D.

The increasing importance of abdominal imaging in general surgery has made it necessary for surgeons to better understand and more effectively employ a broad range of imaging modalities in planning and executing hepatobiliary and pancreatic procedures. Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery: Imaging Strategies and Surgical Decision Making provides a comprehensive introduction to the imaging modalities of greatest interest and use to surgeons and detailed protocols for the effective pre- and intraoperative use of ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging as well as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, cholangiography, angiography, and nuclear medicine.

Designed for easy reference, this book is divided into four independent sections covering the gall bladder, biliary tree, liver, and pancreas. Each section features the following:
* A series of practical, well-illustrated chapters that provide general overviews of the latest trends in abdominal imaging and guidelines for "reading" imaging studies
* Detailed discussions of the role each modality can play in diagnosing cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, choledocholithiasis, cholangitis, cholangiocarcinoma, biliary strictures, hepatic tumors, pancreatitis, and pancreatic carcinoma
* A surgical summary, illustrated with flow charts and decision trees, outlining when to employ the various imaging modalities in practice and how each can best be used to ensure the most successful outcome

A unique combination of state-of-the-art textbook and practical guidebook, Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery: Imaging Strategies and Surgical Decision Making is an invaluable resource for surgeons.
Review:
"In this book the various imaging modalities for the gallbladder, bile ducts liver, and pancreas are first presented from the perspective of the subspecialists who perform them" --World Journal of Surgery, Vol. 23 No. 6, 1999
