Applied radiological anatomy

Paul Buttler

Cambridge University Press, 1999 - Medical - 441 pages

This thoroughly illustrated text will provide radiologists with a unique overview of normal anatomy as illustrated by the full range of modern radiological procedures. The theme throughout is not only to illustrate the appearance of normal anatomical features as visualized by radiology, but also to provide a comprehensive text that describes, explains, and evaluates the most current imaging practice for all the body systems and organs. Where necessary, line drawings supplement the images, illustrating essential anatomical features. The wealth of high-quality images fully supported by an authoritative text will give all radiologists an insight into normal anatomy--a vital prerequisite for interpreting abnormal radiological images. The volume is designed to be accessible to medical students, but will also prove to be a valuable resource for radiologists.
