Designed primarily for clinical use, this very well-illustrated text considers the external auditory canal, middle east and mastoid air cells, facial nerve and inner ear along with the temporal bone. The contributors, most of whom hail from the U. of Michigan Medical School, begin by describing basic anatomy of the structures and the consequences in MRI and CT imaging. In over 50 more articles they explain imagery in such cases as external otitis, exotoses, carcinomas and melanomas, ossicular malformations, meningiomas, metastasis of the middle ear and mastoid, inner ear and petrous bone conditions such as epidermids and petreous apictis, trauma and fractures, the postoperative ear, and such conditions as Paget's Disease, Lymphoma and fibrous dysplasia. The images include comprehensive captions and call-outs and the contributors include a set of full-color plates. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
Temporal Bone Imaging is a case-based review of the current techniques for imaging the various temporal bone pathologies frequently encountered in the clinical setting. Detailed discussion of anatomy provides essential background on the complex structure of the temporal bone, as well as the external auditory canal, middle ear and mastoid air cells, facial nerve, and inner ear. Chapters are divided into separate sections based on the anatomic location of the problem, with each chapter addressing a different disease entity.
Highlights:
- Each chapter features succinct descriptions of epidemiology, clinical features, pathology, treatment, and imaging findings for CT and MRI
- Bulleted lists of pearls highlight important imaging considerations
- More than 200 high-quality images demonstrate anatomy, pathologic concepts, as well as postoperative outcomes
This book will serve as a valuable reference and refresher for radiologists, neuroradiologists, otologists, and head and neck surgeons. Its concise, case-based presentation will help residents and fellows in radiology and otolaryngology-head and neck surgery prepare for board examinations.
