Radiologi är en av de största kliniska specialiteterna inom sjukvården, med koppling till praktiskt taget alla övriga specialiteter. På senare tid har utvecklingen inom fältet varit enastående, både vad gäller teknik, kontrastmedel, minimalinvasiva behandlingsmetoder och digital bildhantering. Förutom att avbilda olika organs morfologi och funktion går det numera också att avbilda skeenden på cellulär och molekylär nivå, och ersätta och komplettera tvådimensionella bilder med tredimensionella och efterbearbetade bilder för att underlätta förståelse, kvantifiering och visualisering av sjukdomsprocesser i kroppen.För att på bästa sätt spegla denna utveckling består den nya upplagan av Radiologi av en fysisk bok som kombineras med en omfattande digital bilddatabas. Den innehåller drygt 1800 bilder och filmer, som på bästa sätt illustrerar de frågeställningar och problem som läkare kan tänkas stöta på i sin yrkesroll. Samtliga kapitel har också genomgått en omfattande revidering. Dessutom har interventionell radiologi getts utökat utrymme, och i ett separat kapitel beskrivs bifynd vid radiologi.Radiologi vänder sig främst till läkarstudenter och läkare. Men boken kan genom sin utformning, bland annat det stora antalet bilder med kommentarer, också användas av andra yrkeskategorier som är under utbildning eller verksamma inom sjukvården.

Magnetic Appeal

MRI and the Myth of Transparency

AvKelly Joyce

Häftad, Engelska, 2008

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar

Magnetic Resonance Imaging, not so long ago a diagnostic tool of last resort, has become pervasive in the landscape of consumer medicine; images of the forbidding tubes, with their promises of revelation, surround us in commercials and on billboards. Magnetic Appeal offers an in-depth exploration of the science and culture of MRI, examining its development and emergence as an imaging technology, its popular appeal and acceptance, and its current use in health care. Understood as modern and uncontroversial by health care professionals and in public discourse, the importance of MRI—or its supposed infallibility—has rarely been questioned.In Magnetic Appeal, Kelly A. Joyce shows how MRI technology grew out of serendipitous circumstances and was adopted for reasons having little to do with patient safety or evidence of efficacy. Drawing on interviews with physicians and MRI technologists, as well as ethnographic research conducted at imaging sites and radiology conferences, Joyce demonstrates that current beliefs about MRI draw on cultural ideas about sight and technology and are reinforced by health care policies and insurance reimbursement practices. Moreover, her unsettling analysis of physicians' and technologists' work practices lets readers consider that MRI scans do not reveal the truth about the body as is popularly believed, nor do they always lead to better outcomes for patients. Although clearly a valuable medical technique, MRI technology cannot necessarily deliver the health outcomes ascribed to it.Magnetic Appeal also addresses broader questions about the importance of medical imaging technologies in American culture and medicine. These technologies, which include ultrasound, X-ray, and MRI, are part of a larger trend in which visual representations have become central to American health, identity, and social relations.

Dava Sobel, acclaimed and bestselling author of Longitude, chronicles the life and work of the most famous woman in the history of science – and the untold story of the young women who trained in her laboratory. ‘A fresh and feminist study of the pioneering Nobel laureate reveals her impact on the women she mentored and set on the path to prominence’ Observer ‘It is a novel lens through which to view Curie’s story, and Sobel paints her tale with characteristic deftness and eloquence’ Financial Times For decades Marie Curie was the only woman in the room at international scientific gatherings, and despite constant illness she travelled far and wide to share the secrets of radioactivity, a term she coined. She is still the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two scientific fields.Her ingenuity extended far beyond the laboratory walls; grieving the death of her husband, Pierre, she took his place as professor of physics at the Sorbonne, devotedly raised two daughters, drove a van she outfitted with X-ray equipment to the front lines of World War I, befriended Albert Einstein and inspired generations of young women to pursue science as a way of life.Approaching Marie Curie from a unique angle, Sobel navigates her remarkable discoveries and fame alongside the women who became her legacy – from Norway’s Ellen Gleditsch and France’s Marguerite Perry, who discovered the element francium, to her own daughter, Irene, a Nobel Prize winner in her own right. The Elements of Marie Curie deftly illuminates the trailblazing life and enduring influence of one of the most consequential figures of our time. ‘A lucid, literate biography, celebrating a scientific exemplar who, for all her fame, deserves to be better known’ Kirkus ‘As expected from a Pulitzer Prize finalist, Sobel writes beautifully and with clarity about the science that Curie specialised in, making clear the achievements that her lab brought about’ Daily Mail ‘This is an essential read, capturing both [Curie's] genius and her legacy’ New Scientist ‘Sobel’s book is a luminous and illuminating contribution to the cause’ Literary Review

Sharpen your diagnostic skills for brain and spine disorders with this unique patterns-based approach to learning

Brain and Spine Imaging Patterns presents a systematic approach to understanding one of the most challenging areas of radiologic interpretation. Uniquely organized by various patterns seen on CT, MRI, and plain radiography imaging rather than pathology, the book carefully guides you toward a group of differential diagnoses. You will find an unmatched collection of more than 140 patterns covering: skull defects and lesions; meningeal and sulcal diseases; extracerebral masses; intracerebral masses; mass lesions in the region of the ventricular system; sellar and parasellar masses; vascular legions; lesions in the cortical gray matter, white matter, and deep gray matter; and spinal diseases and lesions.

The easy-to-navigate organization of this book is specifically designed for use at the workstation. The concise text, numerous images, and helpful icons facilitate access to essential information and simplify the learning process.

Features

More than 140 patterns and more than 2500 digital-quality imagesA strong focus on patterns recognized on MRI, including contrast-enhanced MRIIcons, a grading system depicting the relative frequency of findings from common to rare, and the consistent organization of chapters help to clarify information for at-the-bench consultationMany patterns include a set of “Related Patterns” images, which serve as cross-references to similar patterns for a given disorder Special emphasis on the latest diagnostic modalities includes state-of-the-art depiction of image findings
