Imaging in Endocrinology will provide endocrinologists and
radiologists of all levels with an outstanding diagnostic imaging
atlas to aid them in the diagnosis and management of all the
major endocrine diseases they are likely to encounter.
In full colour throughout, the 300 high-quality images
consist of CT scans, MRI, NMR and histopathology slides,
and are arranged by each specific endocrine condition, resulting in
a visually outstanding and easily accessible tool that guides
the user through exactly what to look out for and provides a
practical and extremely useful aid in helping them formulate a
diagnosis.
Every major endocrine condition is covered in a specific
section, including diseases of the thyroid, pituitary,
reproductive and adrenal glands, the pancreas, bone metabolism
problems, and the various forms of endocrine
cancers. Each disease covered will offer a comparison of
the normal findings so as to further assist
in diagnosis. An accompanying website contains an
online slide-atlas of all the figures in the book, to
allow users to download all figures for use in
presentations.
Led by Paolo Pozzilli, an internationally-recognised expert in
this field, the authors have assembled a wonderful collection of
images that will be greatly valued by endocrinologists and
radiologists alike, ensuring this is the perfect tool to
consult when assessing patients with endocrine disease.
