关于此电子书
It is not an exhaustive text, but concentrates on interpretive skills and pattern recognition – these help the reader to understand the pitfalls and spot the clues that will allow them to correctly interpret the chest X-rays they will encounter in their daily practice.
The book features over 300 high quality images, along with a range of case story images designed to enable readers to test and develop their interpretation skills.
Interpreting Chest X-Rays is a handy ready reference that will help you to avoid making errors interpreting chest X-rays and decide, for example:
* if a temporary pacing wire has been inserted correctly
* whether the shadows you can see are real abnormalities
* if all chest tubes and lines are located appropriately in an ITU patient
* what further imaging may assist interpretation of an apparent abnormality
* whether a post-surgical chest is significantly abnormal
* what organism might be causing an infection
* why a patient is short of breath
* whether patient positioning accounts for an abnormal appearance on a chest X-ray
* what impact radiographic technique has had on the appearance of pathology
