Beskrivelse
Thoroughly and systematically presents the state-of-the-art in the diagnostic uses of radiologic imaging and nuclear medicine in the diagnosis and management of infectious and inflammatory diseases Although our understanding of microorganisms has advanced significantly and antimicrobial therapy has become increasingly available, infection remains a major cause of patient morbidity and mortality. Imaging of infection and inflammation provides a classic example of radiology and nuclear medicine’s strengths as well as weaknesses in the discovery and diagnosis of disease. Fortunately, the weaknesses are subsiding as new studies and techniques point to better planning and precision in the use of single and combined imaging modalities.
Diagnostic Imaging of Infections and Inflammatory Diseases: A Multidisciplinary Approach deals with the very latest developments in the use of radiologic techniques and modalities in the management of patients with a host of infectious and inflammatory diseases. Tremendously timely and useful, this innovative, multidisciplinary book covers a wide range of topics in three parts:
PART 1: Infections and Host Response
Epidemiology of Infections in the New CenturyBacterial Osteomyelitis: the Clinician Point of View PART 2: Radiological Imaging
Radiological Imaging of OsteomyelitisRadiological Imaging of Spine InfectionRadiological Imaging of Soft Tissue InfectionsRadiological Imaging of Abdominal Infections and Inflammatory DiseaseRadiological Imaging of Vascular Graft InfectionRadiological Imaging of TB and HIV PART 3: Nuclear Medicine Imaging
