E-grāmata: Pearls and Pitfalls in Head and Neck and Neuroimaging: Variants and Other Difficult Diagnoses

Citing their common passion as teaching residents and fellows, Aygun, Shah, and Gandhi share their accumulated knowledge, experience and unique understanding of diagnoses that are commonly missed, as well as the most likely imaging findings to be misinterpreted as they promote understanding of difficult diagnoses and common pitfalls in neuroimaging. Each concise yet comprehensive chapter is organized into headings of imaging description, importance, typical clinical scenario, differential diagnosis, teaching points, and references. More than 100 cases are divided into 19 sections: cerebrovascular diseases; demyelinating and inflammatory diseases; tumors; infectious diseases; metabolic and neurodegenerative conditions; trauma; miscellaneous; artifacts and anatomic variations; skull base; temporal bone; paranasal sinuses; orbits; salivary glands; neck; thyroid and parathyroid; vessels; spiral column; intervertebral discs; and spinal canal contents. There is a multitude of figures. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
