Introduction to Sectional Anatomy features all the latest imaging modalities—including ultrasound, MR, and PET/CT.

This Second Edition provides a solid understanding of sectional anatomy and its applications in clinical imaging. By interpreting and comparing images of different patients, it distinguishes normal anatomic variations from variations that indicate disease or injury.

Introduction to Sectional Anatomy, Second edition begins with a chapter that defines key terminology and concepts. The remaining chapters are dedicated to individual body regions. Each one begins with an overview to aid in understanding of the chapter's sectional images. The reader will learn to interpret a series of patient CT and MR images shown in sequence through multiple planes.

Clinical cases centered on CT, MR, ultrasound, and PET/CT images demonstrate how to apply knowledge of sectional anatomy.

Features:

• New layout and design make it easier to compare images from several patients
• New clinical cases show how knowledge of sectional anatomy is applied in practice
• Chapter objectives set forth the skills and knowledge obtained upon successful completion of each chapter
• Clinical application questions at the end of each chapter test ability to apply sectional anatomy knowledge
