Atlas of Emergency Imaging from Head-to-Toe (2nd Edition)

The first chapters outline an evidence-based approach to imaging interpretation for patients with acute non-traumatic and traumatic conditions, explain the role of Artificial Intelligence in emergency radiology, and offer guidance on when to consult an interventional radiologist in vascular as well as non-vascular emergencies. The next chapters describe specific applications of Ultrasound, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, radiography, Multi-Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT), and Dual-Energy Computed Tomography for the imaging of common and less common acute brain, spine, thoracic, abdominal, pelvic and musculoskeletal conditions, including the unique challenges of imaging pregnant, bariatric and pediatric patients. There are two new sections for 2nd edition. One section is devoted to imaging of emergency conditions in geriatric patients. The second section covers special considerations in emergency imaging including imaging of intimate partner violence and emergencies in transplant patients.
