About this book

The availability and diffusion of high-performance technologies has strengthened the role of CT angiography and MR angiography as simple and reliable techniques for the characterization and treatment planning of the main diseases of the cardiocirculatory system, an understanding of which has become essential for all radiologists. The aim of this book is to provide technical indications which are both concise and thorough regarding the main methods and examination techniques for performing high-quality CT angiography and MR angiography studies in a broad range of clinical settings. This is supported by a large number of cases and is rich with advice on image interpretation and practical suggestions for the evaluation and reporting of the examinations. The text will therefore also aim to provide a comparison of the advantages and limitations of the two techniques in various diseases and vascular regions, thus offering indications to both the expert and trainee radiologist.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“The book is well written and there is an appropriate weighting given to each chapter. … the major strengths of this book is the use of superb illustrative diagrams, which complement the text beautifully. … an ideal text for radiology residents and general radiologists who wish to upskill their knowledge in techniques and radiologic interpretation of vascular disease and will be a valuable tool for readers aiming to improve the accuracy and clinical relevance of their vascular imaging reporting.” (Taryn Reddy, Radiology, Vol. 271 (1), April, 2014)

“The basic purpose of Cardiovascular CT and MR Imaging is to provide practical information on how to apply CT angiography (CTA) and MR angiography (MRA) in daily clinical practice. … The main target audience of the book is physicians in the field of cardiovascular radiology … . The book can also provide essential information for residents … as well as for students and technologists in the fields of medicine and medical imaging. … an ideal guide for beginners or as a handbook for experts.” (Jin Chul Paeng, The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, Vol. 54 (10), October, 2013)
