Full Description
Pictorial Atlas of Thyroid Imaging is a concise, highly illustrated guide from an Abu Dhabi based editorial team of radiology and endocrinology experts.
Divided into eight chapters, the book introduces the basics of interpretation of thyroid and parathyroid ultrasound images, as well as providing more advanced guidance for practitioners with experience of these techniques. The first chapter covers the thyroid gland, including normal thyroid and post thyroidectomy changes, followed by a range of conditions which might require imaging, such as congenital disorders, nodular diseases, thyroiditis and hyperthyroidism.
Each chapter covers different lesions of the thyroid gland, with accompanying images and in-depth descriptions to assist fundamental radiology reporting skills. The book concludes with a chapter on the parathyroid glands and a miscellaneous chapter.
Enhanced by 750 high quality ultrasound and pathology images, and images of tumour types, Pictorial Atlas of Thyroid Imaging is an excellent resource for interns, endocrinologists and endocrine surgeons.
