In recent decades imaging has proved one of the most rapidly
expanding areas of medicine. The present day trainees entering
radiology are no longer trained by radiologists who cover and are
well informed on most aspects of their specialty as was the case
with previous generations. Instead they encounter a confusing array
of subspecialists divided both by systems and by techniques. The
system specialists include neuroradiologists. vascular
radiologists. gastrointestinal radiologists. chest radiologists.
and skeletal radiologists. Technique specialists include experts in
nuclear medicine. ultrasound. computed tomography and magnetic
resonance. and there are subspecialists in both groups. not to
mention others like pediatric radiologists who fit into neither
classification. It is our experience that this plethora of experts
each with his own individual approach is bewildering and
intimidating to the novice radiologist. The numerous monographs on
individual subjects and tech niques and the large textbooks so
valuable to the more advanced radiologist are also confusing and
unhelp ful to the new recruit. It was for these reasons that we
decided to embark on this new Short Textbook. The aim was to
produce a concise and integrated volume which could provide the
beginner with a balanced and realistic view of the true place of
different imaging techniques in current practice. Details of
technique are generally excluded; most will be inevitably absorbed
with increasing practical experience. The emphasis throughout is on
clinical usage. and the relative and often changing importance of
different methods in specific clinical contexts.
