Radiology Secrets: 1st SAE
Radiology is an essential component of current medical practice, having assumed a central role in the evaluation and follow up of many clinical problems, from the head to the toes. Becoming familiar with and knowledgeable about the indications and capabilities of various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that are driven by imaging, across a wide range of clinical subspecialties and imaging modalities, is important for those who use radiology for any diagnostic and therapeutic purpose. We have endeavored to create a practical and interesting book that distills the essential aspects of imaging for each subspecialty of radiology. Whether you are a trainee (medical student, resident or fellow), a physician in practice (in radiology, nuclear medicine or another medical specialty) or another type of health care provider, this book was written for you. ABOUT THE AUTHOR : Dr. Drew A. Torigian is a radiologist in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and is affiliated with multiple hospitals in the area. He has been in practice for more than 20 years. Radiologists use imaging to gather information about the structure and function of the human body that may be unavailable without surgery. They rely on penetrating radiation, such as X-rays, CT scans, and PET scans to diagnose diseases. They may also employ ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. They also use various forms of radiation to kill cancerous tissues. For doctors who use radiology to treat cancers, see radiation oncologists.
