This richly illustrated and superbly organized text/atlas is an excellent point-of-care resource for practitioners at all levels of experience and training. Written by global leaders in the field, Imaging Anatomy: Chest, Abdomen, Pelvis, third edition, contains specifics about radiographic, multiplanar, high-resolution, and cross-sectional body imaging along with thousands of relevant examples to give busy clinicians quick answers to imaging anatomy questions. This must-have reference employs a templated, highly formatted design; concise, bulleted text; and state-of-the-art images throughout that identify characteristic normal imaging findings and anatomic variants in each anatomic area, offering a unique opportunity to master the fundamentals of normal anatomy and accurately and efficiently recognize pathologic conditions.
New to this edition
Although the anatomy of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis does not change, the 3rd edition of IA: CAP includes updates to each of the book’s 3 anatomical sections, including:
Text and imaging updates that tie common as well as very important but potentially uncommon current clinical issues to anatomy descriptions and examples as related to best practices for radiology reporting
Updated images across all 3 sections of the book
Anatomic basis for some thoracic developmental abnormalities
Anatomic variants of systemic and pulmonary vasculature
Updated drawings of the chest wall musculature with CT and MR examples
Abdominal imaging best practice updates
More emphasis on the roles of different modalities used for GU/GYN imaging, specifically retrograde urethrogram and MR for specific disease diagnosis
Additional details added on the PIRADS system and clinical implications of MR for prostate cancer
Key Features
Contains nearly 2,800 print and online-only images, including all relevant imaging modalities, 3D reconstructions, and detailed, high-resolution medical drawings that together illustrate the fine points of imaging anatomy
