Estimates reveal that there are some 200 million heterozygous carriers of abnormal hemoglobins genes worldwide, and tens of thousands of severely affected patients.
The aim of the book is to describe the current approach to meningiomas on the basis of experience gained in the fields of histopathology, biology, radiology and surgery.
Considerable advances have been made over the years in the study of the physiological and diseased states of the kidney, so that our present-day diagnostic capabilities permit not only morphological, but also functional inter-relations to be registeres.
Das Buch enthält neuere Erkenntnisse zum Thema "Wirkungssteigerung der Strahlentherapie maligner Tumoren", die anläßlich der 600-Jahrfeier der Universität Heidelberg im Rahmen eines von der Universitäts-Strahlenklinik veranstalteten Symposiums vorgestellt wurden.
Die Bedeutung der szintigraphischen Darstellung des Herzmuskels zum Nachweis einer Ischämie oder einer Infektnarbe hat in den letzten Jahren ständig zugenommen.
International abgesicherte Klassifikationen von Nebenwirkungen in der Onkologie - anwendbar in Praxis, Klinik und klinischer Forschung - stehen im Mittelpunkt dieses Werkes.
Based on the principles of functional vascular anatomy and endovascular treatment described in the first three volumes of Surgical Neuroangiography, Volumes 4 and 5 complete the series that takes a revolutionary approach in endovascular neurosurgery.
In Neuroorthopädie Band 4 werden die Erkrankungen des zervikookzipitalen Übergangs mit Beteiligung des Nervensystems in Diagnostik und Therapie, zumal deren operative Behandlung, diskutiert.
The biennial symposium 'Radiology Today' continues its original mission to bring together European and American radiologists to discuss advances in the field.
The development and the widespread clinical application of various di- agnostic imaging modalities, such as diagnostic ultrasonography, X-ray computed tomography, single photon emission computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging, have been beyond all expectation.
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.
