About this book

This book, unique in focusing specifically on cardiac masses, is the result of cooperation among a number of teams of radiologists working under the aegis of the French Society of Cardiovascular Imaging (SFICV). Its goal is to review the different CMR sequences and CT acquisition protocols used to explore cardiac masses, highlighting their diagnostic capabilities. It has been designed as a teaching tool and offers a fully illustrated compendium of clinical cases, tables summarizing data, and decision-making trees essential in everyday practice. It is presented as a practical handbook and can be either read cover to cover or consulted whenever needed during a cardiac imaging assignment. The book is intended for all students and experienced practitioners, whether radiologists or not, who are interested in cardiac or thoracic pathology.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“The purpose of this 142 page book is to offer the specialist as well as the specialist-in-training and students a large amount of clinical cases describing different sorts of cardiac masses, to be used in their daily practice in cardiac diagnostic work-flow. … This book will surely become a useful companion to cardiologists and radiologists helping them in resolving doubts and difficult diagnostic problems.” (G. Beluffi, La Radiologia Medica, Vol. 118 (2), March, 2013)

“A practical handbook that can be studied cover to cover or referenced whenever necessary. It is intended for anyone who is interested in cardiac imaging, from students to experienced imagers. … Because of its case-by-case organization … this book serves well as a quick reference for a particular disease entity. … Overall, this book provides a good overview of cardiac tumors. … this book could serve as a good quick reference for students or staff radiologists and/or clinicians … .” (AndyKar Wai Chan, Radiology, Vol. 264 (2), August, 2012)

“This is a small, well written book contributed to by many French authors … . At 147 pages this is a concise volume and easy to navigate. It is a handy reference text and … it does provide useful pointers and examples for any cross sectional cardiac imager. … overall this is a well written and enjoyable reference text … .” (Edward Nicol, RAD Magazine, May, 2012)
