The book explores the evolution and impact of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the medical field. It delves into the technological advancements that have transformed diagnostic practices, highlighting significant case studies and breakthroughs. The narrative emphasizes the importance of MRI in understanding complex medical conditions and its role in improving patient outcomes. Additionally, it discusses future possibilities and the ongoing research aimed at enhancing imaging techniques, making it a valuable resource for medical professionals and students alike.

This exceptional book comprehensively addresses diagnostic and interventional radiology, suitable for specialists. It offers a complete overview, from basics to intervention, organized by organ system for easy information retrieval. Key features include clear presentations of normal radiological anatomy and classifications of imaging procedures based on diagnostic relevance. The text includes numerous reference images for imaging diagnosis and precise descriptions of interventional options. Instructive aids support novices in decision-making, with important take-home messages and summaries of key radiological findings to navigate complex information. Tables on differential diagnosis and common disease findings provide quick overviews, while diagnostic flow charts outline evaluation sequences. Standard interventional radiology procedures are presented in a clinically relevant and understandable manner, enhanced by abundant illustrations. This resource serves as a textbook, atlas, and reference, featuring over 2500 images for comparison with the reader’s findings. It offers a comprehensive, up-to-date overview essential for today’s radiology specialists.

Thermal ablation has become an integral part of oncology, especially in the field of interventional oncology. This very comprehensive book encompasses the different technologies employed in thermal ablation, its indications and the results achieved in various clinical conditions. The first part of the book clearly explains the basics of thermal ablative techniques such as laser-induced thermotherapy, radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, cryotherapy, and localized tumor therapy. In the main part of the book, techniques of guiding the applicators to the target structures by use of different imaging tools are discussed. The results are presented for a variety of clinical indications, including liver and lung tumors and metastases and some rather rare conditions involving the kidney, the head and neck, the prostate, and soft tissue structures. A large number of acknowledged experts have contributed to the book, which benefits from a lucid structure and excellent images.

Der Band bietet eine umfassende Einführung in die MR-Tomographie und MR-Angiographie, die zentrale Methoden in der radiologischen Diagnostik des Gefäßsystems sind. Neben technischen Grundlagen werden aktuelle klinische Aspekte und optimale Untersuchungstechniken für elf verschiedene Regionen behandelt. Ein besonderes Augenmerk liegt auf der vergleichenden Analyse von MRT und MRA im Vergleich zu anderen bildgebenden Verfahren wie DSA und Dopplersonographie sowie der Interpretation klinischer Befunde.

- Moderne Diagnostik per Ultraschall, CT und MRT- Behandlungsverfahren, interventionelle Techniken wie Kryotherapie, Radiofrequenztherapie und laserinduzierte Thermotherapie (LITT)

Das "Handbuch diagnostische Radiologie" stellt in 8 Bänden die modernen radiodiagnostischen Möglichkeiten dar. Die Visualisierung von Organerkrankungen wird von den pathologisch-anatomischen Grundlagen über die klinische Symptomatik bis zur diagnostischen Praxis in synoptischer Betrachtungsweise beschrieben. Die klare Darstellung der Methoden mit Vergleich und Wertung, Einsatzmöglichkeiten und sinnvollen Indikationen unterstützt den Arzt bei der zielgerichteten Diagnosefindung. Alle Inhalte sind praxisgerecht und übersichtlich aufbereitet. Die einheitlich strukturierten Kapitel mit einer Fülle instruktiver Abbildungen sorgen für schnelle Orientierung. Ein Nachschlagewerk, das in der täglichen Routine und bei Problemfällen Hilfe bietet und Lücken zwischen bekannten Monographien über einzelne, sehr spezialisierte Themen schließt.

In January 1995, 300 participants from Asia, USA, and Europe lively discussed the „State of the Art and Future Aspects of CT“ in Peking, China. The workshop was designed to cover all essential aspects of modern CT imaging including the historical development, different techniques, contrast agents, organ systems, and indications. The comparative evaluation of CT versus MRI and ultrasound was a central topic. Additionally, a special session was dedicated to „Angiography Tomorrow“. This book summarizes the state of the art in both conventional and spiral CT imaging and provides some suggestions as for the future role of the method.
