Covering the entire spectrum of this fast-changing field,
Diagnostic Imaging: Head and Neck,
Fifth Edition, is an invaluable resource for neuroradiologists, general radiologists, and trainees?anyone who requires an
easily accessible, highly visual reference on today's head and neck imaging. Drs. Bronwyn E. Hamilton, Bernadette L. Koch, Surjith Vattoth, Blair A. Winegar, and their team of highly regarded experts provide
updated information on disease identification and imaging techniques to help you make informed decisions at the point of care. The text is
lavishly illustrated, delineated, and referenced, making it a useful learning tool as well as a handy reference for daily practice.
- Serves as a one-stop resource for key concepts and information on head and neck imaging, including disease identification, imaging techniques, and details on tumor staging and classification
- Reflects recent updates in genetic and molecular characterization of tumors, congenital malformations, and inflammatory/autoimmune disorders, which all have implications for targeted precision therapies
- Offers more than 400 concise, informative chapters, dividing content into sections based on head and neck spaces and anatomic regions, with additional sections on cancers, posttreatment appearances, pediatric lesions, and syndromic diseases
- Features more than 2,800 high-quality print images (with an additional 3,800 images in the complimentary eBook), including radiologic images, full-color medical illustrations, clinical photographs, histologic images, and gross pathologic photographs
- Provides new and expanded content on genomic characterization of head and neck cancers; new characterizations of sinonasal tract and skull base tumors through distinctive genetic and molecular signatures (as reflected in the WHO's 2022 reclassification); newer imaging techniques to characterize neuroendocrine tumors and spread using DOTATATE PET; whole-body imaging surveillance strategies for Li-Fraumeni syndrome, hereditary paraganglioma pheochromocytomas, and hereditary retinoblastoma; and the use of whole-body MR for tumor syndromes, multifocal vascular anomalies, and much more
