Comprehensive Radiographic Pathology by Ronald L Eisenberg Md Jd Facr

• Thorough explanations
and comprehensive coverage aid readers' understanding of disease processes and their radiographic appearance.
• Numerous high-quality illustrations covering all modalities clearly demonstrate the clinical manifestations of different disease processes and provide readers with a standard for the high-quality images needed in radiography practice.
• Discussion of specialized imaging explains how supplemental modalities, such as ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and positron emission tomography (PET) are sometimes needed to diagnose various pathologies.
• Treatment coverage provides readers with brief explanations of the most likely treatments and the prognosis for each pathology.
