520 |a This second revised edition of Multislice CT provides a comprehensive overview of the clinical application of this exciting technique, following the introduction of the newest generation of multi-detector row CT scanners. An initial section considers technical aspects and issues, including those relating to radiation dose and use of contrast material. Thereafter the focus is on the diagnostic applications of multislice CT in each of the most important anatomical regions. Examinations of the abdomen, head and neck, brain, chest, and blood vessels are individually described and illustrated, due attention being paid to the special scanner settings necessary in each case. Practical guidelines to the performance of a successful investigation are provided, and each chapter also reviews the most recently published literature. This comprehensive book will be an invaluable asset to radiologists at all levels
