About this book

This book provides a detailed guide to the use and interpretation of color Doppler ultrasound, CT, and MR imaging in patients with gynecological disorders. The advantages and limitations of each modality in imaging different pathologies are clearly presented, and advice is provided on the most appropriate option when ultrasound does not permit a definite diagnosis or fails to determine the precise extension of a lesion. Throughout, emphasis is placed on the importance of microscopic and macroscopic findings for a full understanding of the radiological appearances, and relevant points from the basic sciences are also highlighted. Special attention is paid to issues of differential diagnosis and imaging results that are characteristic of a particular type of lesion. The authors are recognized experts in the field who draw upon their considerable experience to provide an up-to-date reference book highly relevant to everyday clinical practice.

Reviews

“This is a very beautiful and in depth reference book written by Jean Noel Buy … . The book integrates anatomy, physiology and pathology with ultrasound, CT and MRI imaging. … this is a book for clinicians who already have an interest and basic understanding of gynaecological imaging and who wish to become experts in the field. … It deserves a place on the shelf of any gynaecologist or radiologist with a special interest in gynaecological imaging.” (Jackie Ross, The Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, Vol. 17 (2), 2015)
