DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Completely revised and updated, the fourth edition of Aunt Minnie's
Atlas and Imaging-Specific Diagnosis is an excellent study tool for
radiology board examinations.This classic textbook is divided into all
radiology subspecialties written by experts in their academic fields
and include images, history, findings, diagnosis, and discussion. "Aunt
Minnie's Pearls" at the end of each case help reinforce the key features
and provide a quick review of major salient points. Perhaps the largest
single collection of Aunt Minnie-like cases in any one publication, it
features more than 380 cases and over 1,000 images representing all
modalities and subspecialties in diagnostic imaging.
Brain Injury: Applications from War and Terrorism is a single-
authored book written by a world-class neuroradiologist with extensive
experience in traumatic brain injury (TBI). It features six graphic-
intense chapters depicting and expounding upon the complexity of
TBI. Culled from nearly three decades of studying civilian TBI and five
years of intensive study of TBI sustained from combat, terrorism, and
natural disasters, this work is an exhaustive and innovative authority
on the current approaches and applications of civilian and combat TBI.
The text is sectored into six chapters based on pathophysiology, each
augmented with numerous images and illustrations. The book gives
special attention to neuroimaging, but is reinforced with relevant clinical
correlation. This monograph is unique because it is first in class as an
omnibus for the radiologist, neurologist, neurosurgeon, maxillofacial
surgeon, emergency physician, pediatrician, ophthalmologist, and
the rehabilitation team. Accompanied by detailed high resolution
illustrations with meticulous annotation, Brain Injury: Applications from
War and Terrorism contains over 500 curated radiological and clinical
images that enhance the concepts detailed in each chapter. Complete
with up-to-date references, it is a state of the art resource guide for
any member of the team of professionals caring for those who have
sustained a traumatic brain injury
