Full Description
Still one of the only books to cover CT and MRI imaging in every anatomical area, this state-of-the-art new edition has been meticulously revised. It maintains its status as a practical guide, distilling cutting-edge research and theory into step-by-step descriptions of all MR and CT imaging applications. It has been updated throughout to reflect cutting edge technological advances in MR and CT imaging. It includes: information on the latest multi-slice CT systems and 'Cone Beam' detector technology; many new images taken using a prototype research scanner - see tomorrow's images today; and, a new section covering considerations in Pediatric patients for each anatomic region. Many new material has been added - for example 8 new chapters in the neuroimaging section and 2 new chapters on the heart.
