The last decade has seen enormous upheaval within all aspects of
health care, and the gastrointestinal/ gastroenterology (GI)
service has been no exception. Increasing demand for new and
established diagnostic and interventional procedures has encouraged
innovative models of service delivery, resulting in a range of
health professionals crossing traditional practice boundaries. In
particular, nurses and radiographers have seized the opportunity to
develop their scope of practice, managing a range of procedures
including colonoscopy, barium studies and CT colonography. This
has, in many cases, freed both radiologists and gastroenterologists
to take on new roles in the interventional service. The development
of new procedures and new ways of working has promoted a renewed
enthusiasm for critical evaluation of the GI service as a whole. As
practitioners and clinicians learn new skills and extend their
scope of practice it is essential that they have a thorough
understanding of the basis of safe, effective and evidence based
practice. This book offers the reader a detailed overview of the
range of imaging procedures that may be employed in the
investigation of gastrointestinal tract pathology, and explores
current practice related to the subsequent patient care pathways
and treatment options. It has been designed as a detailed reference
guide for all health professionals who have a direct involvement in
the GI tract and its imaging, including those who may be referring
patients for GI radiological investigation, those professionals who
are performing and subsequently reporting the procedures, and the
clinicians responsible for the subsequent patient management. This
book offers a unique insight into the rapidly changing radiology
service, and offers introductory chapters which provide the
fundamental underpinning knowledge required for safe and effective
GI practice. Subsequent chapters discuss the evidence base related
to a range of imaging procedures suitable for investigation of
upper and lower GI symptoms, supported by key pathology chapters.
The book also explores the range of treatments available for the
more common GI tract pathology. Multi professional authorship.
Detailed evidence-informed explanations of a range of individual GI
procedures, including suggestions for problem solving and
adaptation of technique. With extensive illustrations, medical
images, boxes and tables. References and further reading. /ul>
Computer-Aided Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery: Developments,
Applications, and Future Perspectives is an ideal resource for
biomedical engineers and computer scientists, clinicians and
clinical researchers looking for an understanding on the latest
technologies applied to oral and maxillofacial surgery. In facial
surgery, computer-aided decisions supplement all kind of treatment
stages, from a diagnosis to follow-up examinations. This book gives
an in-depth overview of state-of-the-art technologies, such as deep
learning, augmented reality, virtual reality and intraoperative
navigation, as applied to oral and maxillofacial surgery. It covers
applications of facial surgery that are at the interface between
medicine and computer science. Examples include the automatic
segmentation and registration of anatomical and pathological
structures, like tumors in the facial area, intraoperative
navigation in facial surgery and its recent developments and
challenges for treatments like zygomatic implant placement.
