Meyers Dynamic Radiology of the Abdomen 6/e: Normal and Pathologic Anatomy

Meyers' Dynamic Radiology of the Abdomen,6/e: Normal & Pathologic Anatomy


The long-anticipated Sixth Edition of Morton Meyers’ classic text, Dynamic Radiology of the Abdomen, is more than a
revision. While holding to the fundamental theme of previous editions, the Sixth Edition is a new and updated
presentation of a book that first introduced a systematic application of anatomic and dynamic principles to the
practical understanding and diagnosis of intraabdominal diseases 34 years ago. The authorship of this revised text has
been enlarged by the addition of two international authorities on intraabdominal disease processes?Chusilp
Charnsangavej and Michael Oliphant.

The insights introduced by Morton Meyers in the first edition and developed over subsequent editions have ensured the
critical position of the radiologist in establishing the diagnosis and clearly established the dynamics and pathways of
spread and localization of intraperitoneal infections and malignancies, among other things. The Sixth Edition builds
upon this by broadening a vision to encompass global anatomic continuity throughout the abdomen and pelvis.
