Imaging in Endocrinology

Imaging in Endocrinology provides endocrinologists and radiologists of all levels with an outstanding diagnostic imaging atlas to aid in the diagnosis and management of all major endocrine diseases they are likely to encounter. In full colour throughout, the 270 high–quality images consist of CT scans, MRI, NMR and histopathology slides, and are arranged by each specific endocrine condition, resulting in a visually outstanding and easily accessible tool that guides the user through exactly what to look out for and provides a practical and extremely useful aid in helping to formulate a diagnosis. Every major endocrine condition is covered in a specific section, including diseases of the thyroid, pituitary, reproductive and adrenal glands, the pancreas, bone metabolism problems, and the various forms of endocrine cancers. For each disease, there is a comparison of normal findings so as to further assist in diagnosis. An accompanying website contains all 270 figures, fully–downloadable, perfect for use in presentations. Paolo Pozzilli and his co–authors have assembled a wonderful collection of images that will be greatly valued by endocrinologists and radiologists alike. Along with their thoughtful and expert guidance throughout, Imaging in Endocrinology is the perfect tool to consult when assessing patients with endocrine disease.
