This book offers a comprehensive case-by-case review of common and uncommon pathologies
involving the different systems in the abdominal cavity and facing the radiologist
in his/her daily practice. The book is subdivided into several sections: section I
presents the pathologies involving the liver, and section II those involving the gallbladder
and the bile ducts. Section III deals with lesions of the pancreas and section IV
with lesions involving the spleen. In section V, the pathologies involving the urinary
tract are reviewed, and in section VI, those involving the adrenals. An in-depth review
of lesions involving the gastrointestinal tract, peritoneal cavity, and retroperitoneum
is in section VII. The abnormalities of the bladder, the female genital pelvis, and
the male genital pelvis are presented in the sections VII and IX. In the special section
(section X) are five very useful appendices each one presenting 64-slice protocols
for routine abdomen and pelvic CT scan; for dual-phase liver CT scan; for evaluation
of hematuria; for pancreatic CT scan; and for evaluation of adrenal mass.
