Description

Teaching Atlas of Urologic Imaging presents a case-based approach to selecting the multimodality imaging strategies for the most frequently encountered urologic disorders. The book provides comprehensive coverage of the latest imaging techniques with an emphasis on newer modalities such as CT intravenous pyelograms (CT-IVP) and MRI for the genitourinary system. Each case opens with a concise description of the clinical presentation, radiologic findings, diagnosis, and differential diagnosis. It then concludes with a detailed discussion of the background, clinical findings, pathology, imaging findings, treatment, and prognosis for that case, and pertinent references.

Features:

• Nearly 400 high-quality illustrations, including 47 in full color, demonstrate anatomy and pathology
• Consistent format of each chapter enhances ease of use
• Bulleted lists of differential diagnoses are ideal for rapid review
