Imaging for Students provides a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of diagnostic and interventional imaging, written specifically for medical students and junior doctors. Starting with a clear explanation of how each imaging modality actually works, the reader is then guided step-by-step through the range of imaging modalities available, with important information included on the hazards and risks associated with medical imaging. The work includes a detailed guide to the interpretation of plain films of the chest, abdomen and skeleton, before providing a system-based tutorial covering the most common conditions that require imaging for diagnostic confirmation. Using evidence-based studies and guidelines, Imaging for Students takes a logical approach to the investigation of clinical scenarios, where possible indicating the `best first test.` Imaging for Students also gives an overview of medical imaging procedures, emphasizing the importance of patient preparation and post-procedure observation. With its comprehensive and thoughtful coverage, Imaging for Students presents students with everything they need to know for a clear understanding of the advantages, disadvantages, and possible side effects of the imaging modalities available.
