Description
The 4th Edition of this text - popularly known as the "purple book" - returns with a comprehensive, up-to-date look at diagnostic imaging,
presenting essential facts in an easy-to-read, bulleted format. More than 1,800 images highlight key diagnostic details and encompass
the full range of modalities and specialties. A differential diagnosis section is found at the end of each chapter, and a differential
index facilitates rapid reference. The 4th Edition includes coverage of new technologies, emphasizes clinical technical advances in CT
and MRI, and examines the emergence of PET. A CD-ROM - new to this edition - features animations that depict the spatial and temporal
complexities of MRI.
