Synopsis

This extensively illustrated atlas for radiologists, pulmonologists and pathologists describes the anatomic and pathogenetic bases of various radiologic abnormalities seen in chest disease. Organized according to patterns seen on standard chest radiographs and CT scans (e.g., a solitary pulmonary nodule, multiple cavities, etc.), each pattern is defined and illustrated by a number of cases. Also featured is a succinct background of diseases, including clinical and pathological definition.

About this title

Review

Respiratory Care, 01-OCT-03, Volume 48, Issue 10, Wendi Norris, MD, Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Harborview Medical Center, University of Washington, Seattle, WA -- "This book is superb. The first author, Dr. Muller, speaks publicly in a crisp, clear, and succinct manner, and in this book he and his colleagues present radiologic and pathologic diseases of the lung in a similar manner...This text is an excellent reference for physicians, nurses, and respiratory therapists. It is succinctly written and diseases are presented in a logical order. The various radiologic presentations of individual diseases are discussed, often in the order of which presentation is most common. The index is well done, so that topics of interest are easily found. I strongly recommend Diseases of the Lung: Radiologic and Pathologic Correlations to anyone who wants a reference for common radiologic and pathologic presentations of pulmonary disease."-Respiratory Care
