Fetal and perinatal medicine is a rapidly expanding field, and noninvasive imaging by means of ultrasonography and MRI is playing a major role in refining diagnosis and therapy.
The American Cancer Society anticipates that 16,500 patients will be diagnosed with primary malignant tumors of the central nervous system in 2000, with about 200,000 individuals presenting with brain metastases.
Since the publication of the first edition of Radiotherapy of Intraocular and Orbital Tumors in 1993 the treatment programs for cure have changed from the dominance of surgical resection to the utilization of radiation therapy with preservation of the eye intact and preservation of vision.
In dem vorliegenden Werk wird erstmals für den deutschsprachigen Raum ein Überblick gegeben über: die theoretischen Voraussetzungen einer regionalen Therapie, die verschiedenen Techniken zu deren Durchführung und über die bisher gewonnenen Ergebnisse unter Berücksichtigung des jeweiligen Tumortyps, seiner Lokalisation und der angewandten Form der regionalen Therapie.
Das Buch vermittelt dem Radiologen wertvolle Hinweise auf die klinischen Zusammenhänge und gibt auf der anderen Seite dem Kliniker Einblick in die vielfältigen Möglichkeiten der kernspintomographischen Diagnostik.
Our goal for this second edition of Oncologic Therapies is to again provide a brief introduction to the principles and practice of oncology and to oncologic therapies.
Mammography can be thought of as a (sub)macroscopic "e;shadow pathology"e; - confident diagnosis necessitates comprehensive knowledge of breast pathology.
This book describes and summarizes the radiation responses of both normal and neoplastic tissues with a focus on rational strategies for the modification of these responses.
Nuclear Medicine techniques have advanced to such a degree that biochemical transparency of the human body has reached the doorstep of medical application.
Eine gelungene, aussagekräftige Ultraschalluntersuchung erfordert zweierlei: Ebenso wichtig wie ein technisch guter Schallkopf ist ein in der sonographischen Methode gut geschulter Untersucher.
Dieser Handbuchband enthält Beiträge über die Thoraxerkrankungen des Neugeborenen, Sonderformen der Pneumonien auf immunologischer Basis und die Pneumonie bei atypischen Masern.
Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind.
CAR is a symposium and exhibition covering the impact ofcomputer and communication systems applied to radiology andother medical disciplines, which use digital imaging fordiagnosis and therapy planning.
The symposium on Angiography/Scintigraphy brought to Mainz in the fall of 1970 not only many European colleagues with an interest in these techniques, but also a number of visitors from overseas.
When in the future improved and more flexible heating equipment becomes available, and when hyperthermia is applied more routinely, computerized simulations of treatments will become commonplace, as they are in radia- tion therapy.
The tremendous expansion of medical knowledge during the last few decades, together with the introduction of many new diagnostic techniques, has demanded such a degree of specialisation that no single individual can be conversant with all the information available.
The second volume of Frontiers in European Radiology covers two very promising techniques in diagnostic radiology, namely digital radiography and nuclear mag- netic resonance imaging.
Medical information systems such as Radiology Management Information Systems (RIS), Picture Archiving and Communications (PACS) and Hospital Information Systems (HIS) will soon be standard tools to support routine work in hospitals.

Increasing survival figures and the use of more intense combined treatment regimens in modern oncology have raised the problem of late therapeutic sequelae in long-term survivors after cancer.
Radiology of the thorax forms an indispensable element of the basic diagnostic process for many conditions and is of key importance in a variety of medical disciplines.
Over the past two decades, the remarkable advances in imaging techniques, such as ultrasound and fast or ultra-fast MRI, have led to the diagnosis of an increasing number of tumors at the prenatal stage.
