Description
Abdominal X-Rays Made Easy provides a comprehensive guide to interpreting abdominal radiographs. Written by a practising radiologist with extensive teaching experience, this manual offers simple rules and practical advice for tackling the initial jumble of information found in an abdominal X-ray.
With its focus on both how to look at and what to look for on an abdominal film, this book is ideal for medical students and junior doctors preparing for exams or clinical practice. The guide covers common and serious conditions likely to be detected on a plain abdominal X-ray, as well as the use of digital radiography and new legislation on radiation exposure.
Additional illustrations of other imaging techniques, such as CT scans in suspected renal colic, are also included to provide a secure base for tackling exams and the challenges of clinical practice.
