This book brings the recent dramatic changes in the field of cardiovascular imaging into the clinical setting to enable the clinician to best use the technology at hand. Novel Techniques for Imaging the Heart opens with three chapters reviewing the general considerations and fundamentals of imaging, followed by a series of chapters that address clinical applications of CT and CMR, including * critical review of imaging approaches for diagnosis and prognosis of CAD * evaluating the patient with new onset heart failure * evaluating the patient before non-cardiac surgery * evaluating the patient before interventional electrophysiology * novel assessment of vascular flow and valvular disease * relative merits of CTA and MRA for coronary artery imaging The final section deals with advanced applications of CT and MR imaging, considers technical advances and future prospects of high field

A-Z of abdominal radiology.  Gabriel Conder .

Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, c2009.

MED 617.5507572 A-Z - - Med Open Collection

A-Z of Abdominal Radiology provides a concise, easily accessible radiological guide to the imaging of the common disorders of the abdomen and pelvis. Organised by A-Z, each entry gives easy access to the key clinical features of the condition. Section 1 reviews the relevant radiological anatomy of the abdomen and pelvis. This is followed by over 80 abdominal disorders, listing characteristics, clinical features, radiological features and relevant clinical management. Each disorder is highly illustrated to aid diagnosis.

Recent technological advances with electro-cardiogram-gated CT and MR imaging have expanded the application MR imaging when used in the non-invasive clinical assessment of cardiac structure and function. MR Imaging can be used to supplement clinical studies and provide new insights into the physiology and patho-physiology of the heart.

The physics of clinical MR taught through images.  Val M. Runge, Wolfgang R. Nitz, Stuart H. Schmeets

New York, NY : Thieme, c2009. 2nd ed.

MED 616.07548 PHYSICS   

This lavishly illustrated book uses high-quality images to present a practical guide to the physics of magnetic resonance. Written by internationally renowned authors, the book places an emphasis on learning visually through images of real cases rather than through mathematical equations and provides the fundamental information needed to achieve the best images in everyday clinical practice. This edition features new images and incorporates information on the latest technical advances in the field, discussing such important topics as 3 T, specific absorption rate (SAR), arterial spin labeling, continuous moving table MR, and time-resolved contrast enhanced MR angiography. Highlights: -Concise chapters make difficult concepts easy to digest -400 high-quality images and illustrations demonstrate key concepts This book is a valuable reference for radiologists and an excellent resource for residents preparing for board examinations. It is also ideal for MR technologists and students seeking to fully understand the basic principles underlying this important diagnostic tool.
