Conventional chest and cardiac radiography remains one of the most widely used diagnostic techniques in thoracic imaging. For this reason, this book aims to provide students and early-career physicians with a systematic manual that guides them from image morphology to accurate diagnostic interpretation.

The comprehensive introduction, together with the analysis of specialist-level images, enables recognition of the most relevant radiological findings and helps develop a high level of observation and interpretation skills.

Radiological patterns are presented in a clear and easily memorized manner and are sometimes integrated with other imaging modalities. Text and images are presented side by side following a highly didactic approach, with key terms clearly highlighted using arrows and numerical references.

A numbered reference table included in the cover flap enhances usability and supports content processing. Numerous quizzes allow assessment of learning level and monitoring of further progress.

The book contains a high density of information in a compact format and includes detailed guidance on the placement of pleural and thoracic drains and central venous catheters. The excellent image quality and concise text make this volume particularly suitable for students and residents at the beginning of their professional training.
