Interpret diagnostic images accurately with Diagnostic Radiology
and Ultrasonography of the Dog and Cat, 5th Edition. Written by
veterinary experts J. Kevin Kealy, Hester McAllister, and John P.
Graham, this concise guide covers the principles of diagnostic
radiology and ultransonography and includes clear, complete
instruction in image interpretation. It illustrates the normal
anatomy of body systems, and then uses numbered points to describe
radiologic signs of abnormalities. It also includes descriptions of
the ultrasonographic appearance of many conditions in dogs and
cats. Updated with the latest on digital imaging, CT, MR, and
nuclear medicine, and showing how to avoid common errors in
interpretation, this book is exactly what you need to refine your
diagnostic and treatment planning skills! Hundreds of detailed
radiographs and ultrasonograms clearly illustrate principles, aid
comprehension, and help you accurately interpret your own films.
The normal anatomy and appearance for each body system is included
so you can identify deviations from normal, such as traumatic and
pathologic changes. Coverage of the most common disorders
associated with each body system help you interpret common and
uncommon problems. Coverage of radiographic principles and
procedures includes density, contrast, detail, and technique, so
you can produce the high-quality films necessary for accurate
diagnosis. Clinical signs help you arrive at a clinical diagnosis.
An emphasis on developing a standardized approach to viewing
radiographs and ultrasonograms ensures that you do not overlook
elements of the image that may affect proper diagnosis. Complete
coverage of diagnostic imaging of small animals includes all
modalities and echocardiography, all in a comprehensive,
single-source reference. Discussions of ultrasound-guided biopsy
technique help you perform one of the most useful, minimally
invasive diagnostic procedures. Single chapters cover all aspects
of specific body compartments and systems for a logical
organization and easy cross-referencing. Coverage of different
imaging modalities for individual diseases/disorders is closely
integrated in the text and allows easier comprehension. A
consistent style, terminology, and content results from the fact
that all chapters are written by the same authors. An improved
layout makes the material easier to read and comprehend. Over 450
new or improved illustrations cover topics with clear, high-quality
images. Coverage of CT, MRI, and scintigraphy has been expanded.
Updated chapters include the latest developments in diagnostic
imaging and findings on new conditions. New computed tomography and
digital radiography information in The Radiograph chapter includes
help in recognizing artifacts on ultrasound. Expanded sections on
ultrasound in The Thorax chapter include examples and more content
on portosystemic shunts, including color Doppler images. Color flow
and spectral Doppler images in The Abdomen chapter complement the
descriptions of radiologic conditions, relevant information on CT
imaging and thyroid scintigraphy. An expanded section on
appendicular pathology and joint pathology is added to The Bones
and Joints chapter. New and improved diagrams/line drawings with
accompanying normal images of the brain and spine are added in The
Skull and Vertebral Column chapter, including more MRI and CT to
illustrate normal components and pathologic conditions. Update on
new soft-tissue conditions appears in the Soft Tissues chapter.
