New Chest, Abdomen, Pelvis title in the exciting Diagnostic and Surgical Imaging Anatomy series makes its debut at RSNA 2006.
Co-authored by Michael P. Federle, MD, FACR, Melissa Rosado-de-Christenson, MD, Paula J. Woodward, MD, Gerald F. Abbott, MD, and Akram M. Shaaban, MBBCh, this imaging anatomy reference covers all the major areas of the torso. This volume “…not only reveals the complex mysteries of the body’s structure but further indicates why anatomical applications are still being made today. The information is presented in an engaging and reader-friendly style. Convoluted descriptions are abandoned as key anatomic principles are outlined in succinct format. Medical illustrations of exquisite museum quality are combined with state-of-art diagnostic imaging. A distinctive feature is the frequent use of pathologic examples to highlight certain anatomic structures or features that might otherwise be obscure. The exciting capabilities of ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are beyond the wildest dreams of Andreas Vesalius or Harvey Cushing,” says Morton A. Meyers, MD, Emeritus Professor of Radiology and Medicine, Distinguished University Professor, State University of New York at Stony Brook. “Anatomy is so intimately linked to physiology and pathology that this textbook is a gem for any student or practitioner involved with the human body in modern medicine.”
