Part of the Clinico Radiological Series, this book provides a multidisciplinary overview of diagnostic imaging for chest infections.
Divided into six sections, the text begins with a general overview of imaging techniques and chest infections.
The following sections discuss imaging of different causes of chest infection – causative organisms, such as bacterial pneumonia and fungal infections; clinical scenarios such as hospital-acquired pneumonia and infections following surgery.
The final section provides reporting templates and questions and answers to assist learning.
The text is further enhanced by nearly 1300 clinical photographs, diagrams and tables, as well as numerous illustrative case scenarios.
Other titles in the Clinico Radiological Series include Temporal Bone Imaging (9789385891908), Imaging of Interstitial Lung Diseases (9789386322517) and Sinonasal Imaging (9789352701711).
