• Presents new-generation multislice CT images throughout the book to help you interpret findings from this revolutionary new imaging modality.
• Includes a completely updated image-guided interventions chapter, plus five new chapters-Liver Transplants; Male Pelvis; Female Pelvis; Evaluation of the Airway; and Contrast Nephrology-to keep you up to speed on the latest approaches.
• Features a new full-color format for a more user-friendly resource.
• Provides digital-quality images throughout for enhanced detail.

Review

“Because it fits whole-body imaging into a succinct two-volume text, it will…make an excellent and often used addition to the library of general radiologists and radiologists in training.” -AJR, review of the previous edition“CT and MR Imaging of the Whole Body maintains its status as a practical guide, combining cutting-edge research and theory into step-by-step descriptions of all CT and MR imaging applications.” -Radiology, review of the previous edition
