By Kenneth Miles, C. Charnsangavej, C. Cuenod

This new text-atlas makes a speciality of anatomy and procedural technique for perfusion CT imaging within the prognosis and administration of melanoma. it's going to use a mixture of images and schematic diagrams that convey how this new modality can be utilized to evaluate anatomy and advisor healing interventions. It starts with an introductory part discussing the cutting-edge and heritage aid (including software program) within the use of the approach; there then follows a series of chapters that evaluation functions for every of the most physique structures and anatomic areas. The ebook concludes with a bit at the makes use of of perfusion CT in tracking medical trials, and in addition experiences new purposes for mixed modalities corresponding to CT/PET.
