Thyroid nodules with benign signs might be subjectively diagnosed as malignant, leading to over treatment, and nodules with malignant signs might be regarded as benign causing insufficient curing. In order to improve the accuracy rate of thyroid nodules, this book analysed ultrasound diagnosis for thyroid nodules in multiple difficult and misdiagnosed cases from thyroid surgeons' perspective and closely combined ultrasound imaging with clinical information, including ultrasound images and palpation of thyroid nodules, ultrasound detection video, gross specimen and pathologic diagnosis to interpret the ultrasound images of thyroid nodules, which can be a reference for thyroid surgeons and beginner. This is the first book which has systematically summarized the ultrasound thyroid nodules from the perspective of surgeons, closely combining the imaging and clinical characteristics. Contains abundant clinical cases, and can be used as a teaching book for beginner and an expert-led training course. Help surgeons to better carry out clinical work, making up for the lack of knowledge in anatomy and clinical pathology. Helps surgeons to perform the preoperative ultrasound evaluation, in order to decrease the missed and misdiagnosed nodules.

This edited volume will focus on the advanced elements of computed tomography for an array of audiences, but more specifically, to undergraduate and postgraduate radiographers or CT technologists. This book will draw on the international expertise of advanced topics in CT. Typically, CT practices and approaches differ between hospital sites and workplace environments. As there are currently no universally accepted approaches, the reader can use this book to develop local imaging protocols with adjustments made for patients, the type of scanner and the radiologists' or physicians' preferences. Editors anticipate this to remain a key text for undergraduate and postgraduate radiography and CT students as it incorporates a holistic view of the profession whilst identifying advanced knowledge and understanding pertinent to CT practice. This is not a text on CT physics and imaging protocols alone but on the application and potential for such advanced techniques within the computed tomography field. The text, which includes most relevant technical and pathophysiological premises, also articulates learning points and pitfalls. Throughout the text, there is also an emphasis on image evaluation, with guidance on the recognition of normal, benign, and malignant pathologies and clear instruction on learning points and pitfalls. Given the increasing recognition of advanced scope of practice and professional capabilities in the field of medical radiation science, a focus on CT imaging within emergency settings, interventional environments and forensic imaging is portrayed. It is intended that this text will enhance and offer original discussions surrounding the interconnectivity of the technology, sciences research, and patient care in CT.

This book presents 101 unique and extraordinary cases in interventional radiology (IR) and endovascular therapy. Extreme IR is an internationally recognized event that Dr. Ziv Haskal created and held in early 2000's at mountaintop venues, then at successive Society of Interventional Radiology annual conference meetings, and later, published monthly within the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (JVIR) for which he was editor-in-chief for 10 years. The ever-popular Extreme IR sessions at conferences have drawn more than 5,000 attendees. Cases are presented in a rapid-fire format designed to maximize relevancy, excitement, and unique knowledge. This book aims to replicate that experience for a wider audience. The book is divided into twelve sections, including venous, portal hypertension, and biliary, arterial, oncology, etc. cases. Most cases span two pages and include large, illustrative images with bullet-pointed text to present essential information in a concise and focused fashion. The global list of authors exemplifies the extraordinary breadth of the cases for interventional radiologists, endovascular specialists. It is ideal for interventional radiologists and endovascular specialists at all levels of seniority and training.

Basic knowledge of radiology Clear and compact, this textbook provides you with a complete overview of all radiology content relevant to the examination. It guides you in an easy-to-understand and GK-oriented manner through the entire basic knowledge from the basics to the most important clinical pictures, including nuclear medicine and radiation therapy. Benefit from the many years of experience of the lecturers, who have carefully selected and prepared the essentials for you. The content The proven didactic concept enables efficient learning: Exam section - For optimal preparation for MC questions and case studies. Core statements - Get to the heart of the matter Case studies - provide a vivid reference to practice Radiology to understand, learn, apply. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.

This book, now in an extensively revised second edition, is designed to provide the reader with a full understanding of the role of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in helping to solve many of the most challenging problems in endodontics. It will shorten the learning curve in application of this exciting imaging technology in a variety of contexts: difficult diagnostic cases, treatment planning, evaluation of internal tooth anatomy prior to root canal therapy, nonsurgical and surgical treatments, early detection and treatment of resorptive defects, and outcomes assessment. The ability to obtain an accurate 3D representation of a tooth and the surrounding structures by means of noninvasive CBCT imaging is changing the approach to clinical decision making in endodontics. Clinicians long accustomed to working in very small, three-dimensional spaces are no longer constrained by the limitations of two-dimensional imaging. The challenges of mastering the new technology can, however, be daunting. The detailed guidance contained in this book will help endodontists to take full advantage of the important benefits offered by CBCT. .

This book offers a complete focus on the radiographic analysis of the abdominal wall and hernias. An estimated 20 million hernias are repaired annually throughout the world. As the technology utilized to complete hernia repairs becomes more complex, surgeons are required to have a more thorough understanding of the radiographic anatomy and diagnostic modalities used to evaluate hernias. Furthermore, the amount that now goes into the preoperative planning of hernias for complex repairs (such robotic and open transversus abdominis muscle release procedures) requires an understanding of radiology and the ability to identify nuances of anatomy offered by the imaging. The use of mesh and extent of re-do hernia repairs has also complicated radiographic evaluation of hernias. The text is a comprehensive review of abdominal wall imaging broken down into individual types of hernia. Each hernia type is discussed with consideration to the best type of imaging evaluation, unique radiographic findings and considerations prior to repair. Representative images, diagrams and videos are used to point out anatomy and features of the hernia. This text offers the first-of-its-kind standardized approach to evaluating hernias radiographically. Most importantly, each hernia and chapter is approached with the surgeon in mind, meaning, authors explain the radiology based on anatomy and with a plan for surgical repair on the horizon. Select chapters include illuminating videos to give context to the text. This is an ideal guide for practicing surgeons and trainees treating patients with hernias.".
