These exercises are meant for students and practitioners who wish to familiarize themselves with the normal and pathologieal computerized tomographie radioanatomy of the abdomen.
Embolization has been performed in many European countries and in North America for over 20 years and is now beginning to gain accep- tance in other countries.
Marcelle Megret has assembled a comprehensive collection of radiographie images during her work in the field of com- puted tomography of the cranial skeleton.
Technical advances in the field of mammography and better interpretation of the photographs have led recently to a more precise and reliable means of diagnosis, especially for findings which are difficult to analyse.
Computerization of the radiological image (digitization, com- puted tomography), the diagnostic contributions of ultra- sonography, and the advent of magnetic resonance imaging all herald a new era in radiology.
Even the earliest applications of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and tomography to medical inquiries, using experimental apparatus that was primitive by today's standards, demonstrated the extraordinary potential of the NMR method.
Radiology Today 3 presents papers and panel discussions from a multi- national faculty at the biannual Salzburg Symposium, which this time covered three important topics: critical diagnostic pathways in gastro"e; intestinal and genitourinary radiology, interventional radiology of the abdomen, and cost containment in radiology.
The quantitative analysis of blood flow within central and peripheral blood vessels has attracted more and more interest, for with the rapid developments in vascular surgery and the introduction of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, it is becom- ing increasingly important to be able to measure regional blood flow in man.
This book is intended for beginners and for those who want to refresh their knowledge of the elementary radioanatomy of the vertebrae, particularly their pathological radioanatomy.
Journalists, always very direct and in search of sensation, essentially asked me two questions on the occasion of this workshop: What were the goals of the meeting?
In this age when we are witnessing a veritable explosion in new modalities in diagnos- tic imaging we continue to have a great need for detailed studies of the vascularity of the brain in patients who have all types of cerebral vascular disease.
The purpose of this book is to provide the radiologist with information which is "e;as practical as possible"e; for the everyday use of computerized tomography (CT) in the field of cervical, thoracic, and musculoskeletal pathology.
It was our aim to place at the disposal of radiologists within a short time an atlas of high-quality, valuable pictures of abdominal CT without We felt that, the image degradation inherent to slower scanning apparatus.
