Overview
This book provides a comprehensive account of imaging of the small intestine. It is designed to represent both an in-depth guide to clinical practice and an up-to-date reference source for those engaged in imaging evaluation of the small intestine. Detailed descriptions and critical assessments are given of all the commonly employed techniques, including ultrasonography, computed tomography, nuclear medicine, diagnostic and therapeutic angiography, and barium radiology. Full consideration is also given to the substantial progress achieved during recent years by means of techniques such as enteroscopy and MR-enteroclysis. Authoritative reviews, written by leading experts in the field, are provided on all of the important clinical entities and conditions. The book is richly illustrated with high-resolution images, many of them in color and will serve as a unique source of information and aid for radiologists, gastroenterologists, gastrointestinal surgeons, pathologists and oncologists.
