As physicians become more dependent upon radiologic tests for
information, it is imperative that they have correct information on
how and when to order them. Radiology Strategies is designed to
help the medical student and non-radiology practitioner learn to
make effective use of radiologic tests based on a patient's signs
and symptoms.
Signs and symptoms for the most commonly encountered disease
processes are covered in clinical vignettes that systematically
discuss: case history; background; test rationale; test of choice;
radiologic images demonstrating the findings that make the
diagnosis; and evidence-based references. Introductory chapters
cover radiation safety; use of contrast agents; how a radiologic
test can be chosen effectively based on specificity, accuracy, and
pre-test likelihood of disease; and general guidelines on when and
why to choose a particular imaging modality (i.e., CT, MRI, plain
film).
Quick reference features such as decision algorithms, an index of
common signs and symptoms and a convenient two-page spread that
ensures concise, at-a-glance coverage of topics make this an
indispensible study aid as well as a quick reference handbook in
the clinic and on the ward.
