Imaging of the Temporal Bone

상품상세정보
Authoritative and lavishly illustrated, this best-selling reference returns in a fourth edition with comprehensive
coverage of the current imaging strategies for the evaluation of disease processes affecting the temporal bone and its
intricate anatomy. New in this edition is a highly practical "how-to" chapter that presents imaging modalities and
technical parameters for CT and MRI as well as an overview of the role of plain film radiography, ultrasound, PET, and
PET/CT. The chapter then addresses major clinical indications, providing step-by-step descriptions of how to protocol
each case, how to interpret the studies, and how to report findings. The remaining chapters thoroughly cover specific
anatomic areas of the temporal bone separately. Each chapter places special emphasis on gaining a solid foundation of
the normal anatomy and anatomic variations. It then discusses imaging protocols and image evaluation for specific
clinical problems.

Highlights:

Practical discussion of standard techniques, protocols, and special considerations for imaging using CT and MRI

In-depth coverage of both common and rare conditions

Clinical insights from international authorities in the field

More than 1,500 high-quality illustrations and images, including CT, MRI, and vascular images using CTA, MRA, and
conventional catheter angiography

This book is an essential reference for a multidisciplinary approach to assessing diseases affecting the temporal bone.
It is an ideal resource for all radiologists, neuroradiologists, head and neck radiologists, and residents in these
specialties. It is also valuable for otolaryngologists, otologists, and head and neck surgeons.
