- Practical reference for differential diagnosis of infectious and inflammatory diseases in heart and chest
- Key points to facilitate rapid and accurate diagnosis
- A wealth of carefully selected cases and illustrations
This user-friendly book provides a comprehensive overview of diagnostic imaging in infectious and inflammatory diseases in heart and chest.
It starts with a general review of infectious diseases, including pathogenesis and pathology-radiology correlations. In separate chapters, the authors then introduce clinical images of typical bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections in a wide range of clinical conditions and circumstances. Each disease is clearly illustrated using cases combined with high-quality CT and MRI for readers to correctly identify causes of abnormalities.
The book provides a valuable reference source for radiologists and doctors working in the area of infectious and inflammatory diseases.
