Description
Imaging Anatomy: Text and Atlas, Volume 1 – Lungs, Mediastinum, and Heart
This first volume in a cutting-edge radiologic text-atlas series offers an in-depth exploration of the anatomy of the lungs, mediastinum, and heart. It emphasizes the critical importance of understanding both normal imaging anatomy and anatomical variants, including diagnostic and surgical perspectives, which are foundational to radiologic expertise.
Edited by the distinguished radiologist Farhood Saremi, and coedited by Damian Sanchez-Quintana, Hiro Kiyosue, Francesco F. Faletra, Meng Law, Dakshesh Patel, and Shane Tubbs, this richly illustrated atlas features contributions from an esteemed international team of experts.
The atlas showcases high-quality, multiplanar, and volumetric color-coded imaging using CT, MRI, and angiography. These are supplemented by cadaveric dissections and detailed color illustrations that vividly elucidate each anatomical region. Comprising twenty-one concise chapters, the book covers the thoracic wall, mediastinum, lungs, vascular structures, and cardiac anatomy, delivering a virtual dissection experience. Numerous anatomical variants and pathological examples further enhance comprehension.
Key Features:
-
Over 600 detailed illustrations to clarify complex anatomical regions
-
Comprehensive coverage of lung anatomy, including pleura, pulmonary arteries and veins, and lymphatic drainage
-
In-depth discussion of the tracheobronchial tree, mediastinum and thymus, thoracic aorta and its major branches, systemic veins, lymphatics, thoracic nerves, diaphragm, and breast
-
Detailed heart anatomy, covering atrioventricular septal regions; aortic, pulmonary, mitral, and tricuspid valves; coronary arteries and myocardial perfusion; coronary veins; and pericardium
This authoritative resource is essential for medical students, radiology residents, practicing radiologists, cardiologists, and cardiovascular and thoracic surgeons. It serves as an invaluable desk reference and practical guide for differentiating normal from pathological anatomy in clinical practice.
