Manuale di Tomografia Computerizzata Approccio sistematico alla refertazione TC

4th Italian Edition from the 10th German Edition

Large-format volume (22 x 30 cm), 232 pages with 1300 images, printed in full color on matte coated paper and bound in paperback with laminated color cover.

Computed tomography (CT) has become an integral and indispensable part of clinical diagnostics, allowing highly accurate answers to specific clinical questions within a short time frame. Recent technological advances enable submillimeter spatial resolution in CT angiography and, with the aid of dual-energy CT, even characterization of the chemical composition of tissues or, for example, renal calculi.

Above all, the development of PET/CT has made possible tremendous progress in oncology, particularly regarding diagnostic accuracy in the detection of metastases and tumor recurrence.

Modern imaging modalities are often not taught adequately during clinical lectures and conferences for medical students, who frequently graduate with significant knowledge gaps in this field.

All these aspects and recent advances have already been taken into account in this standard manual of CT diagnostics, which provides the necessary basic knowledge for beginners who are just becoming familiar with the subject, while also serving advanced users with a special radiological interest.

It is hoped that the quizzes, in particular, will stimulate many readers to test and refine their diagnostic skills.

The success story of 28 editions in 10 languages speaks for itself and demonstrates the wide acceptance of this book among German-speaking colleagues as well as international professionals.

I wish readers great benefit, both in terms of learning and enjoyment, from using this educational manual.
