Description
John Wiley Abdominal-Pelvic Mri, 4Th Edition by Richard C Semelka
This fourth edition of Abdominal–Pelvic MRI provides the reader with a significant update on earlier works. Modern diagnostic MRI relies on the practitioner′s ability to distinguish between diseases through pattern recognition and experience, and this landmark reference provides the most complete coverage of magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen and pelvis, with particular emphasis on illustrating benign, malignant and inflammatory lesions. Beginning with an introduction to relevant imaging physics, summary of contrast media for body imaging, and imaging protocols, the book is then organized by anatomic region. In order to regain a single volume the content focuses on providing high quality, representative illustrations of many entities and the accompanying text presents brief descriptions of pathophysiology followed by detailed discussion of the characteristics of the entities in the relevant organ or system.
