Master the critical imaging content you need to know with this thoroughly updated title in the popular Case Review series.�Thoracic Imaging�offers a�highly illustrated, case-based preparation for board review�to help residents and recertifying radiologists succeed on exams, demonstrate a clinical understanding of thoracic imaging, and improve imaging accuracy and interpretation.�Cases include both common and difficult-to-diagnose disorders�spanning the range of diseases impacting the thorax, including sarcoidosis, lymphoma, traumatic aortic injury, small airway disease, idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, developmental lung disease, and lung cancer.
-
Presents more than�145 high-yield case studies�organized by level of difficulty, helping you build your knowledge and confidence in stages. All cases have been refreshed and rewritten to capture�the latest clinical implications and diagnostic pearls�on thoracic conditions that you will be tested on.�
-
Includes�multiple-choice questions, answers, and rationales�that mimic the format of certification exams.�
-
Uses�short, easily digestible chapters�covering the full range of thoracic imaging for efficient, effective learning and exam preparation.�
-
Features hundreds of�high-quality, full-color images�(many new to this edition) representing a wide range of clinical situations encountered in thoracic imaging. Images include chest radiographs, CT, PET-CT, and MRI to help you expand your visual identification and diagnostic skills.�
- Clearly see and interpret 400 high-quality, state-of-the-art images representing a wide range of clinical situations encountered in thoracic imaging.
- Get fresh perspectives from 200 updated or new cases reflecting the most recent changes in thoracic imaging, including PET-CT, emerging pulmonary infections, smoking-related lung diseases, Fleischner guidelines for management of incidentally detected lung nodules, and ground glass and part-solid lung nodules.
- Spend less time searching and more time learning with easy-to-navigate chapters focused on visual identification and diagnosis, and reorganized by degree of case difficulty.
