Beschreibung

Image-focused introductory text exploring various contemporary radiology modalities including X-ray, CT, Nuclear medicine, MRI, Ultrasound, and Interventional

Diagnostic Imaging and Anatomy in Acute Care provides an overview of imaging modalities, focusing on plain radiology, CT, ultrasound and MRI. Nuclear medicine and interventional radiology are also included in cases relevant to acute care. To aid in reader understanding, this book includes a multitude of pictures annotated with clinically relevant anatomy, enabling readers to compare normal anatomy with pathology and cross reference with previous anatomical knowledge.

Diagnostic Imaging and Anatomy in Acute Care includes discussion on:

  • How to effectively utilize radiology services when managing acute cases which are commonly present in emergency and urgent care
  • Tips for dealing with time-sensitive situations where immediate reporting is not available
  • Specific terminology pertaining to each different modality and how each modality can be interpreted systematically
  • Methods to identify key abnormalities through effective usage of pattern recognition

Diagnostic Imaging and Anatomy in Acute Care is an essential reference on this subject for front line clinicians involved in acute care, specialty doctors who would like to know more about imaging modalities, nurses and allied health professionals with an interest in anatomy and imaging, and students of the above disciplines.

PREFACE

There is a growing reliance upon imaging in medicine and surgery. Radiology is a rapidly expanding sector and with this expansion comes increasing complexity. This book will give the reader a contemporary overview of the differing radiology modalities: X‐ray, CT, nuclear medicine, MRI, ultrasound and interventional. These will be explored using acute cases which commonly present to emergency and urgent care.

You will see there is a focus on pictures, allowing you to compare normal anatomy with pathology. Radiology relies heavily on pattern recognition, which humans are naturally good at. To help you with this natural talent, the images will be annotated with clinically relevant anatomy. As well as radiological images, there will be relevant anatomical images, allowing cross‐reference with previous anatomical knowledge.

This book is designed to be accessible to many different readerships. Front‐line clinicians involved in acute care should find the array of clinical cases relevant to their practice. Specialty doctors who would like to know more about imaging modalities will find this a useful starting point before more focused specialty‐specific resources. Nurses and allied health professionals with an interest in anatomy and imaging will benefit from the variety of pathology and imaging displayed. Students of the above disciplines could use this as a starting point to learn about radiology.

After reading this book, you will have a greater understanding of different radiology modalities, their indications, advantages and limitations. You will also begin to able to recognise pathology on imaging, which you can apply to your clinical practice. Finally, the book will equip you with radiology terminology which will improve your understanding of radiology reports.
