Anatomy for Diagnostic Imaging

Anatomy for Diagnostic Imaging covers everything trainee radiologists need to know about anatomy shown in the full range of medical imaging, including CT, MR and ultrasound.

It provides an initial traditional anatomical description of each organ or system, followed by the radiological anatomy of that part of the body with labelled imaging examples in all modalities. A series of 'radiology pearls' emphasises clinically and radiologically important points.

Written by radiologists with immense clinical and teaching experience, with seven new contributors, the fourth edition has been fully updated reflecting advances in imaging and evolving clinical practice. It will be indispensable for radiology registrars and residents, especially candidates for postgraduate radiology exams. A manageable size, it will also be of great use to radiographers, medical students, physicians, surgeons and others whose work requires an understanding of radiological anatomy. It is also an extremely useful reporting station reference book.
