Chest Radiology: The Essentials

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This text is based on Dr. Collins's award-winning syllabus for the chest radiology course she teaches at the University of Wisconsin. The book explains the use of all current imaging modalities, with particular emphasis on the interpretation of chest radiographs. Coverage begins with an illustrated discussion of normal radiographic anatomy and proceeds to imaging techniques and radiographic manifestations of a wide variety of diseases. Numerous summary tables and over 700 illustrations complement the text.

Book News Annotation:

Radiologists Collins (U. of Wisconsin-Madison) and Stern (U. of Washington-Seattle) offer a guide for physicians who want to learn to interpret radiographic images of the chest quickly and accurately, and an introduction that radiology residents can read easily during the first month of chest radiology rotation to get a grasp of the fundamentals. Their treatment can also be used to study for the American Board of Radiology oral examination. They seek to avoid being too dogmatic in prescribing protocols that are now in rapid evolution.
