Koeteles, G

The author states that the purpose of this concise book on radiology of the neonate is to summarize the radiologic information needed by pediatric radiologists and neonatologists in their routine work. The book has about 140 pages of text with 128 radiographs and diagrams. The initial chapter discusses the technology of diagnostic imaging in the neonate and concludes with practical suggestions related to radiation protection. Subsequent chapters discuss the respiratory tract, the heart and great vessels, the abdomen and gastrointestinal tract, the urogenital system and the skeletal system. The book concludes with a unique foldout of schematic drawings comparing 24 of the more common bone dysplasias, and then briefly summarizing each.
