This book provides a concise, yet thorough overview of the radiographic evaluation of a full range of commonly encountered gastrointestinal disease entities. For each segment of the gastrointestinal tract, readers will find a summary of the relevant radiographic anatomy, imaging techniques, and indications for radiographic examination ... discussions of which imaging examinations are indicated for optimal evaluation of specific disease processes ... and explanations of what to look for in the resultant images. Covers the functional and structural abnormalities of the entire alimentary tract, including the pharynx, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, small bowel, and colon, as well as the accessory organs of the gastrointestinal system, including the liver, biliary system, spleen, and pancreas. Discusses all relevant imaging modalitiesincluding conventional radiography, fluoroscopy, computed tomography, ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, and nuclear medicine. Includes over 395 examples demonstrating both normal and abnormal radiologic findings for easy comparison to the images seen in practice. Utilizes a straightforward, easy-to-read writing style to make complex material uncommonly accessible. Provides recommended reading lists at the end of each chapter. A volume in the highly popular Fundamentals of Radiology series.

Similar to the first edition, the goal of Mayo Clinic Gastrointestinal Imaging Review, 2nd Edition is to provide an atlas of common abnormalities that affect the gastrointestinal tract. This comprehensive review includes all imaging modalities used within GI radiology, as well as plain radiographs, fluoroscopy, ultrasound, CT, MR, angiography, and nuclear medicine. Focusing solely on adult conditions, the book is divided into 13 chapters covering a separate organ within the gastrointestinal system and a final exam chapter reviewing all chapter content. Each organ-focused chapter is subdivided into sections related to diseases or findings of that organ. Running headers allow the reader to rapidly identify the chapter and the section being viewed. Large, high-quality images are presented in a format so that they can be reviewed as unknowns. A discussion of the cases is presented as if it were a consultation-- with a description of the findings, differential diagnosis, and final diagnosis. A brief discussion of the disease is included. Emphasis is placed on brevity of the text and a single-page layout for all but a few cases. Study guides at the end of each section are in the form of tables summarizing major radiographic findings into differential considerations with brief imaging clues to a specific diagnosis and case references within the book. The end of each chapter lists differential diagnoses for the chapter's specific organ. Full-color composite anatomical illustrations show the immediately obvious appearance of common conditions that correlate with major radiologic findings.
