Protocolli di studio in CT spirale multistrato
Andrea Laghi
editore: Springer Verlag
pagine: 80
La TC spirale multistrato (TCMS) è una metodica cardine nella diagnostica addominale, in grado di offrire un contributo spesso determinante per l'inquadramento clinico del paziente. Una diagnosi accurata non può, comunque, prescindere da una rigorosa tecnica di esame, in continua evoluzione parallelamente allo sviluppo delle apparecchiature. Attraverso la presentazione di casi riguardanti le principali patologie addominali, il volume rappresenta per il Radiologo generale e per lo Specializzando una guida snella in grado di supportarli nelle decisioni riguardanti l'ottimizzazione dei protocolli di studio in relazione al quesito clinico.
PET-TC nella pratica clinica
T. B. Lynch
editore: Springer Verlag
pagine: 312
Recenti progressi tecnologici hanno favorito la diffusione della PET-TC, una metodica di indagine che permette di evidenziare gli aspetti morfologici e funzionali delle neoplasie e che è spesso risolutiva nel percorso diagnostico e terapeutico del paziente. L'edizione originale inglese del volume è stata ampliata con due capitoli - sui traccianti PET di uso emergente e sulla dosimetria - e un utile glossario, al fine di presentare in modo conciso e esaustivo i diversi aspetti della metodica. PET-TC nella pratica clinica si propone pertanto come utile strumento per studenti, specializzandi in radiologia, medicina nucleare e oncologia, nonché per medici esterni alla medicina nucleare, quali potenziali prescrittori di tale indagine.

editore: Informa Healthcare
pagine: 556
Computed tomography of the heart and cardiovascular system continues to show an impressive and tremendously successful development. Technical improvements translate into new applications and enhanced diagnostic accuracy and the new diagnostic opportunities may potentially be beneficial for many individuals with known or suspected cardiovascular disease. In order to assure that the potential of cardiovascular CT will optimally be used for patient care, a continued, strong joint effort concerning education and training, further research, and advocacy will be necessary. The combined knowledge, experience, and input of all clinicians and researchers in the field will best serve that purpose. Cardiovascular Computed Tomography is the first textbook to cover the heart, cardiovascular and peripheral vascular systems and will provide the reader with the necessary background information to perform cardiac CT on symptomatic patients and asymptomatic individuals for the accurate assessment of underlying disease.

Introduction to Diffusion Tensor Imaging
Sadao Mori , Susumu Mori
editore: Elsevier Science Ltd
pagine: 190
The concept of Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is often difficult to grasp, even for Magnetic Resonance physicists. "Introduction to Diffusion Tensor Imaging" uses extensive illustrations (not equations) to help readers to understand how DTI works. Emphasis is placed on the interpretation of DTI images, the design of DTI experiments, and the forms of application studies. The theory of DTI is constantly evolving and so there is a need for a textbook that explains how the technique works in a way that is easy to understand - "Introduction to Diffusion Tensor Imaging" fills this gap. It uses extensive illustrations to explain the concept of Diffusion Tensor Imaging. It is easy to understand, even without a background in physics. It includes sections on image interpretation, experimental design and applications
