A text made manageable by inclusion of "what one ought to know" rather than "what there is to know". The work represents the efforts of three uroradiologists who have striven for clarity and succinctness. After discussion of anatomy, embryology, and congenital anomalies, and an overview of diagnostic imaging techniques, subsequent chapters deal with various types of renal pathology, with anatomic regions of the urinary tract, and with topics such as trauma and transplantation. Thoroughly illustrated. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
This 5th Edition of Textbook of Uroradiology focuses on subject matter that will provide critical learning to radiology and urology residents preparing for their board examinations as well as practicing radiologists.
