Netter's Introduction to Imaging, by Larry R. Cochard, PhD, Lori A
Goodhartz, MD Carla B, Harmath, MD, Nancy M. Major MD, and Srinivasan
Mukundan, JR, MD, makes interpreting normal and abnormal X-ray, CT, and
MR images easy by correlating them with crystal-clear Netter
illustrations. You'll learn to recognize anatomical relationships in
images and apply them to a variety of examples of pathology throughout
the body, including the imaging of masses, air, or blood in organs and
spaces...fractures, thickening, constriction, and compression...and
more. You can also access the book from any computer at
studentconsult.com. It's an ideal introduction to diagnostic imaging!
Visualize anatomical structures and relationships with perfect clarity
with the aid of vivid, colorful Netter artwork. The coloring, texture,
and idealized emphasis help you interpret relationships between
structures and compartments as seen in cross section and in X-rays, CT,
and MRI.
Develop your ability to better identify pathologies by viewing normal
healthy anatomical images and abnormal images. Comparative images
reinforce your basic understanding of what normal tissues and anatomy
look like and serve as a guide in recognizing disease patterns and
processes: atypically large or small organs and compartments, masses,
air, or blood in organs and spaces, fractures, thickening, constriction,
compression, and more.
Understand the principles that underlie X-ray, CT, MR, ultrasound, and
nuclear medicine imaging, the use of contrast and angiography.
Understand how radiologists apply systematic search strategies in
imaging studies of each region of the body.
