This book provides a practical guide to diagnostic radiology, with each chapter presenting a case-based tutorial that illustrates a specific aspect of diagnostic radiology required for undergraduate study. In addition, it discusses and assesses issues concerning basic principles in diagnostic radiology, imaging of head trauma, non-traumatic neurological emergencies, chest radiographs, pediatric radiology, and emerging radiological technologies. Tutorials in Diagnostic Radiology for Medical Students is intended as a self-study guide, and offers a valuable asset for medical students and trainee radiologists, as well as educators.

This new edition is a complete guide to diagnostic imaging of the chest and cardiovascular system. Beginning with an overview of chest radiology, techniques and anatomy, the following sections discuss imaging for different pulmonary diseases. The second part of the book covers diagnostic imaging for cardiovascular disorders and includes a chapter on children with congenital heart disease. The fourth edition has been fully revised to provide radiologists with the latest information in their field, and includes new chapters on basic patterns of lung disease on CT, and miscellaneous interstitial lung diseases such as acute respiratory distress syndrome, lipoid pneumonia, and emphysema. The comprehensive text features discussion on the increasing use of image-guided interventions, and is further enhanced by radiological images and tables.

Medical Geology of Africa explores the connection between geological materials, processes and the health of humans and animals. The book fosters an improved understanding of the ways in which the geological environment impacts the geographical distribution of health problems and how they contribute to better diagnoses and therapy. Africa's unique geoenvironmental condition gives added relevance to such studies, underlining the need for geoscience and public health students and practitioners to understand new principles and applications. Chapters in the book provide extended enquiry-based investigations and examples that employ real geochemical datasets, epidemiological records, public health statistics and visualizations. - Provides a summary of current research on Medical Geology of Africa - Identifies gaps in knowledge of the role of the geo-environment in deciphering unknown aetiologies - Assembles the most recent literature on current thematic issues, and prescribes directions of future research

Master the information you need to know for practice and prepare for certification or recertification with a succinct, comprehensive account of the entire spectrum of imaging modalities and their clinical applications. Throughout six outstanding editions, Grainger and Allison's Diagnostic Radiology has stood alone as the single comprehensive reference on general diagnostic radiology. Now in two succinct volumes, the 7th Edition of this landmark text continues to provide complete coverage of all currently available imaging techniques and their clinical applications – the essential information you need to succeed in examinations and understand current best practices in radiological diagnosis - Organizes content along an organ and systems basis, covering all diagnostic imaging techniques in an integrated, correlative fashion, with a focus on the topics that matter most to a trainee radiologist in the initial years of training. - Contains more than 4,000 high-quality illustrations that enhance and clarify the text. - Features an expanded section on cardiac imaging to reflect major developments in cardiac MRI, including 3D ultrasound, PET, and SPECT. - Integrates functional and molecular imaging throughout each section, and includes the latest image-guided biopsy and ablation techniques. - Provides an ideal resource for written, oral, and re-certifying board study as well as for a clinical practice refresher on topics that may have been forgotten.
