Synopsis

Unique among all medical texts on the subject, this volume provides a direct, stepwise approach to the differential diagnosis of abnormal findings on gastrointestinal radiographs. This singular book promptly gives physicians in training and in practice the information they need to reach the best clinical diagnosis.

Each of the book's 80 chapters shows a specific radiographic pattern...lists every disease entity it could possibly be...and helps the reader confirm, refine, or reject differential diagnoses. Using a "pattern approach," individual chapters focus on specific radiologic abnormal appearances rather than disease entities and outline the typical signs, symptoms, and predisposing factors for the abnormality. This edition features hundreds of new images and a new section on MRI of the liver.

About this title

Review:

European Radiology -- Praise for previous editions: "Its strengths lie in the way it is organised and the ease with which one absorbs information from the text and illustrations. This is much easier than any gamut-style of book...It is a practical book to use and should be part of any departmental library."--European Radiology
