Synopsis

Colorectal Imaging: From Basic to Advanced Concepts provides an exhaustive overview of today’s basic and advanced principles of colorectal imaging, focusing not only on oncologic but also inflammatory, infective, and ischemic pathologies and complications. The book reviews basic colorectal cancer information, examines imaging techniques and analysis, and concludes with a review of non-neoplastic pathologies. It is a useful resource for scientists, physicians, and medical students in the discipline of radiology, highlighting the critical role of contemporary imaging in guiding clinical and surgical approaches and providing the knowledge needed to confidently choose the most appropriate imaging examination.

• Presents an up-to-date overview of current approaches in colorectal imaging, particularly in oncologic staging
• Covers applications of radiomics and artificial intelligence in colorectal imaging
• Distinguishes between diagnosis neoplastic and non-neoplastic colorectal pathologies

From the Back Cover

Colorectal Imaging: From Basic to Advanced Concepts provides an exhaustive overview of today’s basic and advanced principles of colorectal imaging, focusing not only on oncologic but also on inflammatory, infective, and ischemic pathologies and complications. The book opens with a review of basic colorectal cancer information then examines colorectal imaging techniques and analysis, and finally concludes with a review of non neoplastic pathologies. It is a useful resource for scientists, physicians, and medical students in the discipline of radiology, highlighting the critical role of contemporary imaging in guiding clinical and surgical approaches and providing the knowledge needed to confidently choose the most appropriate imaging examination on the basis of today’s advanced imaging techniques to correctly interpret and report colorectal CT and MRI examinations.
