Radiologi

BASAL RADIOLOGI er den første danske grundbog inden for det stadig vigtigere område radiologi. I 5 kapitler giver erfarne radiologer omfattende introduktioner til det radiologiske speciale. BASAL RADIOLOGI er delt op i thorax, bevægeapparatet, abdomen, urologi og neurologi. Første del af hvert kapitel beskriver den radiologiske anvendelighed ift. de mest almindeligt forekommende sygdommeog har fokus på diagnostiske og differentialdiagnostiske overvejelser. Der lægges desuden vægt på de forskellige modaliteters egnethed, fra traditionelle røntgenbilleder til ultralyd og CT- og MR-skanning.Kapitlernes anden del rummer adskillige cases, der giver læseren mulighed for at teste sin viden og træne evnen til at se på radiologiske billeder. Bogen baserer sig på et rigt billedmateriale, ligesom pile og faktabokse gør det let for den studerende at orientere sig i materialet.BASAL RADIOLOGI henvender sig primært til medicinstuderende og yngre læger, herunder læger under uddannelse i det radiologiske speciale, men andre faggrupper kan også have gavn af den, fx radiografer. Bogen dækker det radiologiske pensum for medicinstuderende.

This book presents the anatomy and MRI features of the normal fetus and describes the anomalies of each system in a systematic way. The normal fetal brain at different gestational ages is also extensively illustrated. It features a treasure of MR images illustrating several clinical conditions. Sonographic images, line diagrams and post-natal images are supplemented for easy learning. It also addresses the differential diagnoses and prognostic indicators of the various fetal anomalies.This book will help the consultants and postgraduates of radiology, obstetrics, fetal medicine and pediatrics in understanding various fetal anomalies and in patient counseling.

The book provide up-to-date information on clinical application of microwave ablation for limb salvage in bone tumors. First chapters briefly introduce clinical diagnosis, stage, amputation and limb salvage surgery of bone tumors. In the following chapters, detailed procedure of microwave ablation of bone tumors in various parts of the body, for example, upper limb, lower limb, pelvis and spine, is described, accompanying a large number of high-resolution illustration. Microwave ablation of different kinds of bone tumors, for example, bone metastases, giant cell tumor, osteosarcoma, soft tissue tumors is also presented with tips in clinical procedure. In the closing chapters, joint function preservation, prevention and treatment of complications, and the advantages and disadvantages of microwave ablation of bone tumors are also discussed for reader to have a in-depth understanding. It will be a valuable reference for orthopedic surgeons and oncologists, as well as practitioners interested in this field.

This book is a comprehensive review of image guided interventions of the spine. Beginning with a chapter dedicated to the history of image guided spinal interventions, authors set the stage for the role these procedures have and will play in the field. Chapters cover the key procedures, techniques, and considerations to maximize effectiveness and patient care. Some major topics covered include: imaging osseo-ligamentous spine anatomy, percutaneous vertebroplasty, image guided tumor ablation, and vascular spine intervention. Additional features include high-quality illustrations with concise descriptions and clinical cases discussions. This is an ideal guide for interventional neuroradiologists, radiologists, pain management physicians, neurosurgeons, orthopedic spine surgeons, and related residents, fellows, and students wanting in depth information on image guided interventions of the spine.

Nuclear chemistry represents a vital field of basic and applied research. In the 1st volume an introduction to the field is given including relevant parameters, modes of radioactivity, detection methods, and more. In the 2nd volume, modern applications are covered including analytical technologies, pharmaceutical and medical applications, and nuclear energy. The new editions have updated literature references and new material throughout.

The book reviews the recent developments in brain imaging and their technological advancements to understand molecular mechanisms associated with neurological disorders and basic behaviors in humans and rodents at the structural, molecular, and functional levels. It discusses the usefulness of advanced optical microscopy techniques, including optical coherence tomography (OCT), miniscope, multiphoton fluorescence (2PF & 3PF), adaptive optics, harmonic generation, and Raman microscopy for understanding pathomechanism of brain disorders and pathological and physiological changes associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Also, the book presents conventional imaging modalities, including Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), for delineating underlying mechanisms and precise early diagnosis of neurological disorders. This book is a useful resource for neuroscientists and researchers working in biomedical engineering and optics.

This book, written by renowned experts from across the world, provides readers with a detailed and up-to-date understanding of posterior circulation stroke and its management. Anatomy, pathophysiology, clinical syndromes, and imaging findings are clearly and thoroughly described with the aid of illustrative cases and schematic drawings. The management-oriented chapters explain all forms of treatment, including the use of antiplatelet agents and anticoagulants, thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy, stenting, and surgical therapy, i.e., bypass and decompression. Throughout, full account is taken of recent significant advances in knowledge and clinical practice. Stroke affecting the posterior circulation continues to pose particular challenges for clinicians. This book will help readers to avoid misdiagnosis, which still occurs far too frequently, and to manage individual patients optimally. It will be an excellent learning resource for residents in neurology, neurosurgery, radiology, interventional radiology, and vascular surgery, as well as an ideal reference for more experienced practitioners in these specialties.

In recent decades, the use of neuroimaging techniques has resulted in outstanding progress in the diagnosis and management of neurological diseases, and this is particularly true of those diseases that affect the white matter of the brain and spinal cord. This book, written by internationally acclaimed experts, comprises a series of comprehensive and up-to-date reviews on the use of MR imaging in these major neurological conditions. The diverse available MR techniques, such as magnetization transfer MRI, diffusion-weighted MRI, MR spectroscopy, functional MRI, cell-specific MRI, perfusion MRI, and microscopic imaging with ultra-high field MRI, offer an extraordinarily powerful means of gaining fundamental in vivo insights into disease processes. The strengths and weaknesses of all these techniques in the study of multiple sclerosis and other relevant diseases are extensively considered. After an introductory section on neuroimaging technology, subsequent sections address disorders of myelination, demyelinating diseases, immune-mediated disorders, and white matter disorders related to aging and other conditions. This book provides a valuable summary of the state of the art in the field, and defines important areas for future research.
