About this book
This book aims to give an overview of developments in imaging and to describe direct clinical applications. Diagnostic imaging strategies are discussed for a variety of highly prevalent respiratory pathologies, such as pulmonary embolism, idiopathic interstitial pneumonias and collagen-vascular disorders. Imaging facilities for screening and staging lung carcinoma are also reviewed.
