Imaging e Clinica dell’Apparato Urinario Alto dell’Adulto

Large-format volume (19 × 27), 394 pages, 754 illustrations.

With this work, the authors aim to place semiological analysis at the centre of diagnostic evaluation, through the study of the kidneys as a whole, the calyceal-pelvic system, and abnormalities of the renal parenchyma and ureters.

Following the description of imaging techniques, the book analyses radio-semiological findings and uro-radiological syndromes, made possible by the coordinated use of different diagnostic investigations.

The third section provides an in-depth review of the major pathological conditions, followed by diagnostic strategies applied after the detection of symptoms and signs of urological disease. The volume concludes with an evaluation of the role of imaging in post-operative follow-up and surveillance of the urinary tract.

Radiologists and urologists alike will find this text a valuable resource for acquiring new knowledge or refining their expertise in diagnostic radiology of the adult upper urinary tract.
