RADIOLOGY
2007-07-24 06:55:00 1.)Radiology is the medical specialty directing medical imaging technologies to diagnose and sometimes treat diseases. 2.)Originally it was the aspect of medical science dealing with the medical use of electromagnetic energy emitted by X-ray machines or other such radiation devices for the purpose of obtaining visual information as part of medical imaging.3.)Radiology that involves use of x-ray is called roentgenology. Today, following extensive training, radiologists direct an array of imaging technologies (such as ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging) to diagnose or treat disease. 4.)Interventional radiology is the performance of (usually minimally invasive) medical procedures with the guidance of imaging technologies. The acquisition of medical imaging is usually carried out by the radiographer or radiologic technologist.5.)Outside of the medical field, radiology also encompasses the examination of the inner structure of objects using X-rays or othe...

Interpreting Chest X-Rays: Illustrated with 100 Cases
2007-07-01 06:41:00 Philip Eng & Foong-Koon Cheah (Cambridge University Press) Preface "This book arose because of the huge amounts of clinical material that pass through the Singapore General Hospital, the largest tertiary care hospital in Singapore. A significant proportion of our patients come to us for a second opinion from the neighboring countries. Often they come to consult us for an abnormality on a chest radiograph. Pulmonary Medicine is largely based on the strong foundation of the plain chest radiograph. Indeed, chest radiography is the single most common investigation carried out in hospital practice. This book is targeted towards finalyear medical students and residents in a medical training program. We have given countless tutorials to generations of medical students, residents, and fellows and we hope that this collection of pearls can help make the learning process easier, more enjoyable, and less painful. Readers are advised to read this book from cover to cover as the cases are la...
