Book description
Designed for easy use at the PACS station of viewbox, here is your
right-hand tool and pictorial guide for locating, identifying, and
accurately diagnosing lesions of the extracranial head and neck. This
beautifully produced atlas employs the spaces concept of analysis, which
helps radiologists directly visualize complex head and neck anatomy and
pathology. With hundreds of high quality illustrations, this book makes
the identification and localization of complex neck masses relatively
simple. This book provides CT and MR examples for more than 200
different diseases of the suprahyoid and infrahyoid neck, as well as
clear and concise information on the epidemiology, clinical findings,
pathology, and treatment guidelines for each disease. Each space within
the head and neck has its own separate section, with examples of the
common pathology that arises in this area. A standard format consisting
of Epidemiology, Clinical Presentation, Pathology, Treatment, and
Imaging Findings, allows quick and efficient access to well-structured
subjects. This uniform organization streamlines research for
radiologists at any level of training. Although well over 200
pathologies are included within this remarkable text, Atlas of Head and
Neck Imaging focuses primarily on the suprahyoid and infrahyoid neck,
providing exceptionally detailed information on the most challenging
aspects of this field. Radiologists and radiation oncologists will find
this visual text ideal as a quick anatomic reference and diagnostic
tool. Radiology residents preparing for board exams and neuroradiology
fellows and staff studying for the CAQ exam will also benefit from the
wealth of information. ''This book proved hard to fault. . .a very
comprehensive review of imaging relevant to the Head and Neck
Oncologists, the Pediatric Airway Surgeon, and the Emergency Neck
Surgeon. . .pursues the topic to an authoritative depth and is highly
recommended. You don't get many duds in this trademark navy blue and
silver cover.'' --The Journal of Laryngology and Otology. _x000D_
_x000D_ "...This text is an excellent textbook of extracranial head
and neck imaging that could benefit maxillofacial
radiologist."--Journal of Maxillofacial Radiology. _x000D_ _x000D_
''An ergonomic gem...the chapters are concise...the internal
organization of the chapters is consistent...complemented with between
one and nine clear illustrations per chapter. The well conceived and
consistent layout makes [this book] uniquely useful as an aid to
reporting CT and MRI examinations of the neck.'' -- Neuroradiology
