This open access book focuses on diagnostic and interventional imaging of the chest, breast, heart, and vessels. It consists of a remarkable collection of contributions authored by internationally respected experts, featuring the most recent diagnostic developments and technological advances with a highly didactical approach. The chapters are disease-oriented and cover all the relevant imaging modalities, including standard radiography, CT, nuclear medicine with PET, ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging, as well as imaging-guided interventions.As such, it presents a comprehensive review of current knowledge on imaging of the heart and chest, as well as thoracic interventions and a selection of "hot topics".The book is intended for radiologists, however, it is also of interest to clinicians in oncology, cardiology, and pulmonology.

This open access book offers an essential overview of brain, head and neck, and spine imaging. Over the last few years, there have been considerable advances in this area, driven by both clinical and technological developments. Written by leading international experts and teachers, the chapters are disease-oriented and cover all relevant imaging modalities, with a focus on magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography. The book also includes a synopsis of pediatric imaging. IDKD books are rewritten (not merely updated) every four years, which means they offer a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art in imaging. The book is clearly structured and features learning objectives, abstracts, subheadings, tables and take-home points, supported by design elements to help readers navigate the text. It will particularly appeal to general radiologists, radiology residents, and interventional radiologists who want to update their diagnostic expertise, as wellas clinicians from other specialties who are interested in imaging for their patient care.

This open access book focuses on imaging of the musculoskeletal diseases. The book is disease-oriented and covers all relevant imaging modalities, with particular emphasis on magnetic resonance imaging.

This open access book deals with imaging of the abdomen and pelvis, an area that has seen considerable advances over the past several years, driven by clinical as well as technological developments. they cover all relevant imaging modalities, including magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, ultrasound, and positron emission tomography.

This book deals with neuroimaging of the brain, head, neck, and spine. During the last few years, there have been considerable advances in this subject, driven by clinical as well as technological developments. The authors, internationally renowned experts in their field, have contributed  chapters that are disease-oriented and cover all relevant imaging modalities, including magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and positron emission tomography. As a result, this book offers a comprehensive review of the state of the art in neuroimaging. It is particularly relevant for general radiologists, radiology residents, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and other clinicians wishing to update their knowledge in this discipline.

Professor Röntgen können Sie mir helfen?Dieses Buch veranschaulicht klar verständlich, wie Ärzte heute Bilder aus dem Körperinnern gewinnen können: mit Röntgenstrahlen, Radiowellen in der Magnetresonanztomografie, Schallwellen im Ultraschall und radioaktiv markierten Substanzen in der Nuklearmedizin.Die moderne Bildgebung erlaubt uns heute ganz neue Realitäten darzustellen und dank moderner Physik, auf ganz andere Weise als mit unseren Augen, in den Menschen hineinzuschauen. So  ist es uns möglich, verschieden dichtes Gewebe im Menschen darzustellen, magnetische Eigenschaften verschiedener Organe sichtbar zu machen und den Zuckerstoffwechsel oder Hirnveränderungen bei Alzheimer-Krankheit abzubilden.Neben der anschaulichen Darstellung grundlegender physikalischer Zusammenhänge wird auch erläutert, welches Verfahren bei den häufigsten Krankheiten zu welchem Zeitpunkt am besten zum Einsatz kommt.Der Text ist so aufgebaut, dass der Einstieg in jedes Kapitel direkt möglich ist ohne die anderen Kapitel lesen zu müssen.Was passiert bei einer Magnetresonanztomografie mit mir in der Röhre?Muss ich Angst vor Röntgenstrahlen haben?Wie ist der Aufbau von Atomen und wie wird mit diesem Verständnis von Physik ein Bild aus dem Körperinneren generiert?Diese und andere Fragen beantwortet Professor Dr. Gustav von Schulthess in unnachahmlich anschaulicher Art und Weise.

The International Diagnostic Course in Davos (IDKD) offers a unique learning experience for imaging specialists in training as well as for experienced radi- logists and clinicians wishing to be updated on the current state of the art and the latest developments in the fields of imaging and image-guided interventions. This annual course is focused on organ systems and diseases rather than on modalities. This year’s program deals with diseases of the abdomen and pelvis. During the course, the topics are discussed in group workshops and in plenary sessions with lectures by world-renowned experts and teachers. While the wo- shops present state-of-the-art summaries, the lectures are oriented towards future developments. Accordingly, this Syllabus represents a condensed version of the contents presented under the 20 topics dealing with imaging and interventional therapies in abdominal and pelvic diseases. The topics encompass all the relevant imaging modalities including conventional X-rays,computed tomography, - clear medicine, ultrasound and magnetic resonance angiography, as well as image-guided interventional techniques. The Syllabus is designed to be an “aide-mémoire” for the course participants so that they can fully concentrate on the lecture and participate in the discussions without the need of taking notes.

Written by internationally renowned experts, this volume is a collection of chapters dealing with imaging diagnosis and interventional therapies in neuroradiology and diseases of the spine. The different topics are disease-oriented and encompass all the relevant imaging modalities including X-ray technology, nuclear medicine, ultrasound and magnetic resonance, as well as image-guided interventional techniques. It represents a unique experience for residents in radiology as well as for experienced radiologists wishing to be updated on the current state of the art.
