Mri Of The Female And Male Pelvis

Based on the experience of two Italian referral centers, the book depicts the characteristic findings obtained when using MR imaging to study the male and female pelvis including the obstetric applications. Each chapter provides a comprehensive account of the use of the imaging technique of examination, including the most recent advances in MR imaging, the anatomy and MR possibilities in the identification, characterization and staging of the different pelvic diseases highlighting its diagnostic possibilities. The advances in fetal MRI, representing the cutting edge of pelvic MR imaging, will also be depicted. The text is complemented by numerous illustrations, as well as clinical cases that make this a very practice-oriented work, presenting the role of diagnostic imaging in every-day clinical activity. The volume will prove an invaluable guide for both residents and professionals with core interest in gynecology, obstetrics and urology.

Editor Mukesh Harisinghani and authors review important areas in MR of the male pelvis. Articles in this issue will include MRI of the Urinary Bladder; Multiparametric MRI Imaging of the Prostate; Diffusion Weighted Imaging of the Male Pelvis; MR Imaging of the Rectum; Penile MR Imaging; MR Imaging of Pelvic Metastases; MR Imaging of Scrotum; Vascular MR Imaging of the Male Pelvis; and more!

This book provides complete coverage of MRI to diagnose tumours and functional disorders of the chest and abdomen. It also addresses the expanding use of MRI to examine the male and female reproductive systems, pelvis, hips, bladder, and breast.

This volume provides a comprehensive account of the use of MRI and CT cross-sectional imaging techniques to identify and characterize developmental anomalies and acquired diseases of the female genital tract. Benign and malignant diseases are considered, and attention is also paid to normal anatomical findings and variants. Emphasis is on the most recent diagnostic and technical advances, and the text is complemented by detailed illustrations.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of The Pelvis: A Practical Approach presents comprehensive information on how to deal with commonly encountered pelvic pathologies in males and females using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The book's content is developed by disease-focused experts who share their experience in real-world cases to make the information easily applicable to the clinical setting and research. Sections cover male, female and gender-neutral pathologies, with each chapter emphasizing problem-solving approaches, tips and advice surrounding multiple scenarios. The book also provides comprehensive-yet-tailored protocols, clear guidelines for indications, and descriptions of important differential diagnoses and pitfalls that could be encountered in real-life scenarios. This is a valuable resource for radiologists, researchers, clinicians and members of the medical and biomedical fields who need to better understand how to use MRI to base their diagnosis and/or advance their research work. Covers the most common, clinically encountered male and female pelvic pathologies to help readers deal with complex pelvic MRI cases Discusses a wide spectrum of diseases and pathologies of the pelvic region to assist readers from different fields of medicine, including oncology, urology, obstetrics, and gynecology or urogynecology Written by advanced and passionate disease-focused experts in specific fields of pelvic imaging, with several real-world examples discussed in detail Presents valuable knowledge with image-rich and a practice-based approach, covering each topic from basic science to clinical implications

MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis A Text-Atlas Richard C. Semelka, M.D., Susan M. Ascher, M.D., and Caroline Reinhold, M.D. This groundbreaking text-atlas provides an overview of the capability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect an extensive array of disease entities of the abdomen and pelvis. It discusses study design considerations for performing abdominal and pelvic MR examinations and includes separate chapters on each major organ system of the abdomen, male and female pelves, and bladder. Each chapter provides detailed descriptions of normal appearances, common diseases, and rare cases. MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis is highly pictorial and features more than 2,400 representative images. Organ systems and anatomical structures featured include: * Liver * Biliary system and gallbladder * Gastrointestinal tract * Kidney * Adrenal glands * Peritoneal cavity * Retroperitoneum and body wall * Pancreas * Adnexa * Uterus and cervix MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis is an indispensable reference for radiologists and radiologists-in-training, gastrointestinal and oncologic surgeons, oncologists, urologists, gastroenterologists, and obstetrician/gynecologists.
