The diseases that affect AIDS patients give rise to many and varied appearances on radiological images. This superbly illustrated book, which addresses the imaging of AIDS by organ system, is designed to serve as a practical guide to the performance and interpretation of imaging studies in daily clinical practice. It encompasses both the older, accepted appearances of AIDS on radiographs and characteristic presentations on the newer imaging modalities. In addition to the many organ-specific chapters, individual chapters are included on dermatologic AIDS-related disorders, pediatric AIDS radiology,AIDS in the tropics, AIDS-related interventional procedures, and prevention of HIV transmission among health care workers. All chapters are written by experts with extensive clinical experience in dealing with the AIDS pandemic. The breadth of material and liberal references will also serve physicians in training and research doctors.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of diagnostic imaging in infectious diseases. It starts with a general review of infectious diseases, including their classification, characteristics and epidemiology. In separate chapters, the authors then introduce the radionuclide imaging of 50 kinds of infectious diseases. Volume 1 covers 21 viral infections. Volume 2 has 29 chapters discussing 24 bacterial infections and 5 parasitic infections. Each disease is clearly illustrated using cases combined with high-quality computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The book provides a valuable reference source for radiologists and doctors working in the area of infectious diseases.

Chapman & Nakielny's Aids to Radiological Differential Diagnosis is a well-loved radiology resource, used by trainees and practitioners worldwide to hone their knowledge of radiological differential diagnosis for the most commonly encountered conditions throughout the body. It is an invaluable quick-reference companion in everyday practice, as well as an essential study tool when preparing for the FRCR or similar examinations. First published 35 years ago Stephen Chapman and Richard Nakielny's original aims remain as relevant today as when the book was originally conceived. However radiology has expanded rapidly in recent years and this Seventh Edition is the biggest revision this book has had in its long history with major changes incorporated into nearly every section. - Comprehensive lists of differential diagnoses to aid effective diagnoses - Closely aligned to the needs of current FRCR curriculum - Brief, to the point text and clear page format allows for rapid access to key information - Part 2 of the book has been restructured to focus on multisystem disorders which cannot be fully covered in the individual chapters in Part 1. - A new chapter on Nuclear Medicine has been added to reflect its importance in modern medical imaging. - The chapter on head and neck conditions has been significantly expanded. - Important discriminating features have been added to nearly every differential to aid the reader in developing a strategy for reaching a diagnosis. - The top differentials in each list which are considered important for radiology trainees to learn for exams are underlined.

The World Health Organization stated that approximately two-thirds of the world’s population lacks adequate access to medical imaging. The scarcity of imaging services in developing regions contributes to a widening disparity of health care and limits global public health programs that require imaging. Radiology is an important component of many global health programs, including those that address tuberculosis, AIDS-related disease, trauma, occupational and environmental exposures, breast cancer screening, and maternal-infant health care. There is a growing need for medical imaging in global health efforts and humanitarian outreach, particularly as an increasing number of academic, government, and non-governmental organizations expand delivery of health care to disadvantaged people worldwide. To systematically deploy clinical imaging services to low-resource settings requires contributions from a variety of disciplines such as clinical radiology, epidemiology, public health, finance, radiation physics, information technology, engineering, and others. This book will review critical concepts for those interested in managing, establishing, or participating in a medical imaging program for resource-limited environments and diverse cross-cultural contexts undergoing imaging technology adaptation.
