This issue of the Ultrasound Clinics is dedicated to
ultrasound imaging of the abdomen. Abdominal
ultrasound is often the first-line imaging modality
used to evaluate the kidneys, liver, gallbladder,
pancreas, spleen, abdominal aorta, and other blood
vessels in the abdomen, and as such can be
extremely helpful in...
Recognized clinical leaders in neurosurgery and neuroradiology review the cutting-edge techniques and technologies now available and describe how minimally invasive techniques have influenced their subspecialties. On the radiology side, the authors explain the latest developments in magnetic resonance spectroscopy, functional imaging, and...
Since the advent of computerized tomography in radiology, many imaging techniques have been introduced in medicine, science, and technology.
