Synopsis

A practical imaging primer designed specifically for ENTs

Imaging for Otolaryngologists distils the essentials of otolaryngologic imaging into a concise reference that concentrates on key topics that are of immediate interest to otolaryngologists practicing in a modern clinical environment.

Prepared by a renowned otolaryngologist, and reviewed and supplemented by expert radiologists, the book provides a well-rounded perspective. The central focus is on image interpretation, including the disease-specific characteristics, the features necessary for successful diagnosis, and the implications for surgery. Each of the 465 high-quality images is clearly labeled, and where appropriate comparisons are made between CT scans and MR images to show complementary functions and limitations.

Imaging for Otolaryngologists helps readers:

• Evaluate the cross-sectional anatomy in rhinology, otology, and laryngology on plain films, CT scans, and MR images
• Appreciate the contribution and limitations of plain films, CT, and MRI in the management of otolaryngologic diseases

• Understand which radiological appearances to look for in the diagnosis of common and less common otolaryngologic diseases
