MRI Made Easy (for beginners) 2nd Edition

This book explains all the basic entities related to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the beginners. It begins by explaining basics of magnetism, magnetic field, and basic principles behind MRI. Scanning parameters, accessory techniques, MR interpretation, clinical applications of MRI, sequences and artifacts are discussed briefly with representative pictures. Different kinds of MR instrumentation, scanning options are also explained based on which we can chose the instrument to identify a particular ailment. While using MR imaging safety options should also be considered as it may damage skin, and tissue heating. Principles and advantages of neuroimaging is discussed, which helps in interpreting MR imaging apart from anatomical and pathological knowledge of the brain. Bodyimaging is the new aspect of MRI, which helps to assess staging and treatment planning in musculoskeletal tumors. Other instrumentation discussed here includes MR angiography, MR diffusion and its clinical applications, MR spectroscopy, MR Cholangiopancreatography. Advancement and higher MR technologies like 3-Tesla MRI which is superior in epilepsy, inner ear and functional imaging are also discussed briefly.

Pearls and Pitfalls in Thoracic Imaging: Variants and Other Difficult Diagnoses 1st Edition

How often have you been confronted with an image on a thoracic CT exam where you knew it didn’t look ‘normal’, but you weren’t sure whether it was ‘abnormal’ either? And if it is abnormal, is there a specific diagnosis you should be able to make directly off the images? Pearls and Pitfalls in Thoracic Imaging is your one-stop resource to answer questions such as: Is this a normal variant or a disease-related abnormality? Are these findings specific for an uncommon disease and if so what is the diagnosis? Is this set of findings strongly suggestive of a diagnosis? Which additional imaging test will allow me to be confident in that diagnosis? Could the ‘abnormality’ be due to an artifact mimicking disease? Written by leading thoracic radiologists and with concise, image-rich descriptions, Pearls and Pitfalls in Thoracic Imaging is an invaluable diagnostic tool for every radiologist.
