This workbook is divided into lessons that guide you—like an instructor in an ultrasound course—systematically through the individual organ systems and body regions.

Contains diagrams on topographical anatomy, with numerical labels for self-review. This book covers complex findings in trauma victims and ICU patients; offers step-by-step instructions on the placement of CVCs and chest tubes; includes simple aids and tricks, such as the "silhouette sign," that are helpful in image interpretation; and more.

This user friendly workbook helps medical students, sonographers, residents, and radiologists grasp the application of color duplex ultrasound by reviewing normal findings, key pathologic conditions, scanning techniques, and the role of color duplex ultrasound in detecting and assessing various disease states.

Ideal for residents starting in radiology and radiologic technologists, this concise manual is the perfect introduction to the physics and practice of CT and the interpretation of basic CT images. Designed as a systematic learning tool, it introduces the use of CT scanners for all organs, and includes positioning, use of contrast media, representative CT scans of normal and pathological findings, explanatory drawings with keyed anatomic structures, and an overview of the most important measurement data. Finally, self-assessment quizzes - including answers - at the end of each chapter help the reader monitor progress and evaluate knowledge gained. New in this fourth edition: - Updated examination protocols for multidetector CT and CT angiography - An extended chapter on dual source CT - A new chapter on contrast injectors.

In seiner auf Zeitreihendaten der versicherungswirtschaftlichen Entwicklung und auf relevanten gesamtwirtschaftlichen Einflussfaktoren basierenden Untersuchung der Kompositversicherung zeigt Matthias Hofer den engen Zusammenhang zwischen der versicherungswirtschaftlichen Entwicklung und gesamtwirtschaftlichen Größen wie z.B. dem Bruttoinlandsprodukt. Es wird deutlich, dass die Berücksichtigung spezieller Faktoren in den einzelnen Versicherungszweigen zu einer Verbesserung der Modelle führen kann.
