Provides a memorable way to analyze and present chest radiographs – the unique ‘ABCDE’ system as developed by the authors
Explains how to recognize basic radiological signs, pathology and patterns associated with common medical conditions as seen on plain PA and AP chest radiographs
Presents each radiograph twice, side by side - once as would be seen in a clinical setting and again with the pathology clearly highlighted
Includes a section of self-assessment and presentation exercises to test knowledge and presentation technique
Ideal for study and clinical reference, this book will be the ideal companion for any medical student, junior doctor or trainee radiographer.
