Description
Summary:This book provides a comprehensive account of imaging of the small intestine. It is designed to represent both an in-depth guide to clinical practice and an up-to-date reference source for those engaged in imaging evaluation of the small intestine. Detailed descriptions and critical assessments are given of all the commonly employed techniques, including ultrasonography, computed tomography, nuclear medicine, diagnostic and therapeutic angiography, and barium radiology. Full consideration is also given to the substantial progress achieved in intestinal imaging during recent years by means of techniques such as enteroscopy and MR-enteroclysis. Authoritative reviews, written by leading experts in the field, are provided on all of the important clinical entities and conditions. The text is richly illustrated with high-resolution images, many of them in color. This book will serve as a unique source of information and aid to image interpretation for radiologists, gastroenterologists, gastrointestinal surgeons, pathologists, and oncologists.
