Description
This comprehensive, yet concise tool provides a direct approach to differential diagnosis for the 23 most common radiologic patterns of
chest disease. CT and HRCT are used to confirm the pattern, show anatomic distribution of the disease, and make a specific diagnosis.
Each pattern is introduced with radiographs followed by a series of questions, tables of differential diagnosis, and discussions of the
most likely diseases to present with such a pattern. Discussions emphasize the importance of clinical correlation to narrow down the
differential diagnosis.
