Download or read book Radiology of the Upper Urinary Tract written by Erich K. Lang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent in recent years of several new imaging modalities for the application in diag nosis and patient management has had an unprecedented impact on patient care. By per mitting the acquisition of information without intervention, these new modalities have made the diagnostic process more humane. They have also made possible the treatment of many disorders of the upper and lower urinary tract by means of interventional tech niques, replacing a number of surgical procedures. The editor of this volume has engaged international experts in radiology to describe the state of the art of radio log y of the upper urinary tract. Local and regional abnormalities are covered, but so too is the involvement of urinary structures in systemic disease. The radiologic approach and interpretation are combined with the presentation of pertinent clinical observations and important pathophysiologic concepts. The text is concise and the illustrations are appropriate. Up-to-date international bibliographies are provided. Both the text and the illustrations will serve as sources of information for the radiologists, urol ogists, nephrologists, gynecologists, and oncologists. Most importantly, the material is presented in such a way that practicing specialists dealing with urologic disorders, as well as physicians in training will benefit. We feel that it is timely to publish a present day treatise on urinary tract radiology in order to convey the contributions made by various newer imaging modalities to the diagnosis of urinary disorders.

Download or read book Advanced Ureteroscopy written by Scott G. Hubosky and published by Springer. This book was released on 2022-12-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers all aspects of ureteroscopy and the dominant role that it plays in the treatment of many urologic disorders. Most diseases of the ureter and renal collecting system must be considered for ureteroscopic diagnosis and/or treatment. This book explores advancements of instrumentation such as endoscopes, ancillary devices, endoscopic lithotripters, and ablative devices. It also illuminates the most current diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, including pre- and postoperative treatment, metabolic management, and the role of chemotherapy in the upper tract. Further, this book examines less common indications for ureteroscopy such as strictures, foreign bodies, and diagnostic dilemmas. Organized by situation or diagnosis, this book considers all treatment options and notes the role of ureteroscopy before exploring technical approaches, goals of treatment, detailed techniques, staged treatments, potential complications, and postoperative management. Advanced Ureteroscopy: A Practitioner's Guide to Treating Difficult Problems is the definitive source for the endoscopic approach to common and rare upper tract diseases, serving urologic endoscopists, practicing urologists, residents, and fellows.

Download or read book Radiological Imaging of the Ureter written by Francis Joffre and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For several decades, the diagnosis of diseases affecting the ureter was based on intravenous excretory urography and techniques of direct opacification. However, the diagnostic strategy has been extensively modified by the advent of helical computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. This book, the first to focus specifically on ureteral imaging, covers both the new and the traditional techniques. Their use in the variety of scenarios involving ureteral disease is clearly elucidated with the aid of high-quality informative images.

Download or read book Genitourinary Radiology Kidney Bladder and Urethra written by Vikram S. Dogra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-07 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book such as this, correlating radiologic findings with the associated gross and microscopic pathologic findings, has never been offered to the medical community. It contains radiologic images, in a variety of formats (ultrasound, CT scan, MRI scan) correlated with gross photos and photomicrographs of a wide spectrum of pathologic entities, including their variants, occurring in the following organs or anatomic sites. This book would be of particular interest to radiologists and radiologists-in training, who naturally are very cognizant of radiologic abnormalities, but who rarely, if ever, encounter visual images of the pathologic lesions that they diagnose. It will also be of interest to pathologists and pathologists-in-training, urologists, GU radiation oncologists, and GU medical oncologists.

Download or read book Functional Imaging in Nephro Urology written by Alain Prigent and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-01-13 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formulated by members of the International Scientific Committee of Radionuclides in Nephro-urology (ISCORN), Functional Imaging in Nephro-urology is not a textbook on uronephrology or radionuclides in nephro-urology, or even a book on new techniques in imaging. What the editor and authors provide here is a unique opportunity to evaluate the strategic management techniques (both diagnosis and follow-up) of a number of uronephrological entities. Demonstrating the experience of the authors in using various imaging modalities, and detailing the benefits and controversies which are associated with their clinical applications, this text presents management strategies based on the patient, the choice of modality, and cost implications. Detailed, well-referenced and highly illustrated, this is an important book for radiologists, nephrologists and urologists working with children and adults, specialists in renal nuclear medicine, and pediatricians.
Download or read book Pediatric Urogenital Radiology written by Michael Riccabona and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third edition of Pediatric Urogenital Radiology has been thoroughly updated to take account of the recent advances in the imaging and treatment of pediatric nephro-urologic disorders that have been achieved over the past years. A number of new chapters have been included on topics such as the role of ultrasound and MRI for urogenital imaging in the fetus and the use of contrast media in childhood. Other chapters have been extensively revised or rewritten, while information that continues to be pertinent has been retained. The book describes in detail all aspects of pediatric urogenital radiology. It is written primarily from the point of view of the radiologist, but also includes essential clinical information from and for the pediatrician, pediatric surgeon, and urologist. It is specifically designed to aid the clinician in making decisions on imaging management, and to help the radiologist to understand the clinical background and needs. The newest techniques and the changing relevance of imaging and interventional procedures are described, and the diverse problems associated with the changing anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology from the newborn period to adulthood are explained. The whole spectrum of imaging features of agenesis, anomalies and malformations, dysplasia, parenchymal and cystic diseases, urolithiasis, neoplastic diseases, renal vascular hypertension, renal failure, renal transplantation, pre-and postoperative imaging, and genitourinary trauma is covered. Individual chapters are devoted to vesicoureteric reflux, urinary tract infection, congenital urinary tract dilatation, upper urinary tract dilatation, voiding dysfunction, and neurogenic bladder. A chapter on the clinical management of common nephrourologic disorders explains how imaging is embedded in the whole process of clinical management. Short conclusions are included at the end of chapters and sections to highlight the key information.
