Medical Imaging: A Concise Textbook is written to assist a large group of medical personnel, including students and general practitioners, in reading radiographs. The book also attempts to give this group an introduction to radiology. The book begins by examining the physics and the positioning techniques of modern radiology. The following chapters then discuss the subspecialties, ranging from chest and musculoskeletal radiology to interventional radiology and nuclear medicine. The normal features of the subject are discussed first, followed by pathologic abnormalities. With the abnormal patterns, a differential diagnosis is arranged in tables.
