“This slim book is in a series devoted to pathways of cancer dissemination and therefore differs from the usual textbooks of tumour radiology. … I really enjoyed this book, and its main theme on how dissemination pathways result in both imaging features and relate to guidelines and staging protocols is well done.” (Philip Shorvon, RAD Magazine, February, 2019)“It proposes a practical and clinically driven approach to tumor dissemination through imaging. … The contents are well conceived, well organized, and well presented with numerous high-quality graphical illustrations and multimodality images. … this is an outstanding book that makes a fine addition to the radiologist's arsenal.” (Ravi Salgia, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2018)
