Learning Diagnostic Imaging: 100 Essential Cases (Learning Imaging)

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=3540712062]

From the reviews:

“It essentially divides radiology into 10 sections … . The book is aimed at the medical student market and the junior doctors market as well as any other interested healthcare professionals. … Each section contains material for further reading at the end, which will appeal to those who like to study in greater depth. … Overall, the presentation of the book is good and I am sure the text will be a welcome addition to the … market in this area.” (Arpan Banerjee, RAD Magazine, January, 2009)

“The purpose of this book is to provide a quick introduction to diagnostic imaging for medical students and radiology residents, as well as technicians, physician assistants, and nurses associated with diagnostic imaging. Because the book is divided into subspecialties, it may also serve as a refresher for specialized radiologists who are encountering unexpected findings. … This book serves as a teaching file for beginners in diagnostic imaging … .” (Aurelio Matamoros Jr., The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, April, 2009)

“Learning Diagnostic Imaging is a collection of cases designed for medical students and new residents as a preview of the various subspecialties of radiology. … The authors attempt to provide an essential background level of information on which to base future learning as the reader proceeds through medical school and/or residency. … This book is easy to read and understand and is user friendly. … it is worth the investment if you are in need of a high-quality introductory case-file book.” (James W. Berger, Radiology, Vol. 253 (2), November, 2009)

Husband and Reznek’s Imaging in Oncology, 3rd edition (2 Vol Set) 3rd Edition

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=0415451671]

In recent years there has been recognition of the central role of imaging in the management of patients with cancer. The third edition of this widely acclaimed book builds on the foundations laid down by the first edition, the 1998 winner of the Royal Society’s award for the Multi-author Textbook of the Year, and the second (2004). The core of the book deals with the application of imaging in all tumours. An extensively referenced, evidence-based analysis is given of the role of imaging in planning treatment. Experienced opinion is provided as to the advantages and limitations of all relevant imaging modalities including ultrasound, CT, MRI, PET/CT and other nuclear medicine techniques.

Imaging in the recognition of metastatic disease is covered in detail with chapters detailing the range of appearances of deposits in each organ. Much attention is given to the differential diagnosis of focal pathology in each organ in patients with underlying malignancy and useful protocols for the performance of the study provided.

While including a section on new horizons in cancer imaging, such as the imaging of angiogenesis, MR lymphography and the rapidly evolving field of molecular imaging, the editors have not neglected the more traditional general principles of cancer behaviour and imaging. Hence, an outline of cancer surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy is provided by experts. As therapy becomes more successful, increasingly important issues for the radiologist such as the assessment of response, the effect of treatment on normal tissues, the complications of treatment, and the risk of second malignancies are presented.

There are several outstanding features to this book: the colour diagrams of the staging systems are exquisite and allow the often complex systems to be understood easily and memorized; the organization of the book into different, clearly defined sections allow it to be used not only as a reliable reference text, but also to be read easily; key points and summaries in point form are provided throughout for quick revision.

This comprehensive book will not only be essential reading for all radiologists, but also important for all members of a multidisciplinary team looking after patients with cancer.
