This new, one-of-a-kind atlas presents the theory and application of the procedures used to evaluate the respiratory system using easy-to-understand diagrams and illustrations. It relies heavily on high-resolution images of normal and abnormal lungs, handy outline cards, and diagrams rather than weighty text to convey principles and techniques.
- Each chapter written by an international expert in the field
- Highly visual format makes it a superb tool for self-instruction or review
- Chapters include techniques to analyse the gross and fine structure of the respiratory system and classical methods used to study morphology, as well as state-of-the-art methods that couple modern cell and molecular biology with optical techniques
- Clear, comprehensive coverage of lung anatomy and pathology (including special techniques); bronchoscopy and related topics; radiography, imaging, and nuclear medicine; and pulmonary function testing
