This richly illustrated book is devoted to radiologists’ ever-growing interest in discovering metaphors relevant for diagnostic imaging. In its second and completely revised edition, the book contains nearly 800 illustrations and descriptions of about 200 classic radiological signs of chest and abdominal diseases. These signs are based on metaphors from our daily environment and the world around us.
By correlating the results of Computed Tomography (CT) with these vivid and descriptive images, readers will be able to memorize typical and often pathognomonic patterns of disease more quickly and easily. This book will be of value to both radiology residents and more experienced radiologists consultants.
