An essential handbook that covers the radiological findings of all the common surgical conditions. Candidates preparing for the MRCS or FRCS (in General Surgery) exams will find this indispensable guide will prepare them for a wide range of questions, including rare and obscure examples that are not found elsewhere. Radiological findings are presented according to systems such as colorectal, upper GI and HPB, urology, emergency surgery and others. Each chapter describes the use of radiological modalities in different clinical scenarios and includes figures illustrating the defining characteristics of common clinical scenarios. The clear and illustrated content provides the knowledge required to answer what would otherwise be some of the most difficult questions in postgraduate surgical examinations. It is also a practical reference book that can be kept at hand to inform ward rounds and multidisciplinary team meetings. MRCS and FRCS exam candidates are expected to have a knowledge of radiological findings for all surgical conditions, and this concise guide will ensure that candidates are well prepared to answer questions accurately and with confidence.

1. System specific indexing to look up surgical conditions easily and according to syllabus layout 2. Easy to interpret images with brief concise explanations (bullet points) to cover keywords and important/characteristic findings 3. Concise book that can be kept as a pocketbook for easy reference or on mobile phone

The first guide to identifying and assessing changes following urologic surgery—with follow-up protocols What is the normal appearance of a kidney after radio frequency ablation of a tumor and what does a local recurrence look like? How does the urine flow down the ureters after a trans-uretero-ureterostomy? What is the normal appearance of the urinary tract after a cystoplasty? Most clinicians would be hard-pressed to provide answers to such fundamental questions concerning post-surgical anatomy and physiology, and equally challenged to find evidence-based information on the subject. Most of the literature in radiology and urologic surgery is orientated towards diagnosis and disease management. Although this often includes complications and outcomes, the clinician is often in the dark as to the anatomical and physiological changes that follow successful treatment—especially in cases involving conservative or reconstructive surgery. To rectify this, the editors invited colleagues to share insights gleaned during their careers. The results are contained in Radiology and Follow-up of Urologic Surgery. Extremely well-illustrated throughout with color photographs and line drawings, Radiology and Follow-up of Urologic Surgery: Features sections devoted to each of the organs of the genito-urinary tract with chapters covering the major diseases and operations that are used to treat them Focuses on the “new normal” following surgery with an emphasis on the identification of normal changes versus complications Covers the radiologic changes and biochemical and histological findings which are found following reconstructions Offers guidelines for clinical and radiological follow up after urological surgery in some key areas Radiology and Follow-up of Urologic Surgery is essential reading for surgical residents in urology, as well as radiology residents specializing in urology. It also belongs on the reference shelves of urologists, urological surgeons, obstetric/gynecologic surgeons, and radiologists with an interest in the field, at whatever stage in their career.

A comprehensive, systemically organised 'film viewing' book designed specifically for FRCR candidates but equally useful to all trainee and junior radiologists as an 'aide memoire' and to medical undergraduates and MRCP candidates as a useful means of self-testing their level of knowledge. It is fully illustrated with high-quality, clearly labeled black and white illustrations throughout and the text closely mirrors the way that questions are asked in the FRCR film viewing examination, so as to provide as real an examination experience as possible. Each section of the book contains 20 representative questions, and model answers, providing 200 cases altogether.

Guide to interpreting all forms of images (plain film, CT, MRI etc.).

The 11 chapters in this book have been selected from the contents of the Interventional Radiology section in Grainger & Allison's Diagnostic Radiology 6e. These chapters provide a succinct up-to-date overview of current imaging techniques and their clinical applications in daily practice and it is hoped that with this concise format the user will quickly grasp the fundamentals they need to know. Throughout these chapters, the relative merits of different procedures and techniques are described, variations are discussed and recent imaging advances are detailed.

Clinical Surgery provides a complete overview of all surgical specialties, and is suitable for advanced undergraduates through to surgical trainees preparing for the FRCS. This comprehensive textbook is designed around the Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum Programme (ISCP) framework, and provides information needed for passing MCQs, OSCEs and Vivas in the one book. Information is divided into three clear sections: basic science and surgical strategy; common surgical conditions and trauma; and leadership, evidence-based practice and global surgery. This fourth edition has been fully updated and restructured by a new editorial team. Older concepts have been replaced by a new focus on systems biology, omics sciences and multidisciplinary sciences, and the book presents a modern, inclusive view of the surgeon as part of a multidisciplinary team delivering high quality care. - Comprehensive and accessible – all you need in the one book - Information presented logically and clearly in three clear sections - Aligns with the ISCP – designed for surgical trainees - Highly illustrated to support understanding - Detailed practice information and summaries of complex themes to aid with preparation for exams - Practical steps designed to facilitate procedural based learning and OSCEs - Entirely revised to follow the Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum (ISC) - New focus on prevention of surgical disease - Introduction of sections on surgical safety and quality improvement - New sections on the elderly surgical patients, the dying patient and surgical technology

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.

Imaging and Technology: Principles and Clinical Applications is a practical and user-friendly consolidated source book for urologists, and urologists in training, regarding the basic science of imaging modalities used on a day-to-day basis in urological practice. Similarly, the intention is to provide an introduction to the technology that is used in the practice of urological surgery and the management of urological patients in the clinical setting. This knowledge level is appropriate for certification for independent consultant practice in urology in the UK. The book is also valuable to urologists and urological trainees outside of the UK and in other surgical specialities.
