Imaging in Transplantation covers all topics related to the imaging of organ transplantation.

Coverage includes:

• organ procurement
• patient selection
• immune responses
• ethical and economic considerations
• heart, renal, liver, lung, bone marrow and pancreatic and intestinal transplantation

Each of the transplantation topics is discussed firstly in a clinical chapter and then in a radiological chapter. The clinical chapters detail the epidemiology, clinical background, and surgical procedures, as well as any clinically relevant issues of which the radiologist should be aware. The radiological chapters describe and depict the imaging manifestations of specific organ transplantations, document the normal radiological appearance of transplanted organs and consider both early and late complications.

This is a unique, superbly illustrated volume that will be of great assistance to all who work in this field.
