Description
This text/atlas features high-quality, current-generation sonographic images - with an emphasis on colour flow sonography - to illustrate findings commonly encountered in the practice of abdominal imaging. Organized organ by organ, this compilation of more than 1,000 images documents key findings in frequently encountered conditions affecting the peritoneal cavity, gastrointestinal tract, liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, pancreas, kidneys, adrenal gland, spleen, abdominal aorta, inferior vena cava, and retroperitoneum. Pertinent clinical information and practical guidance on image generation and interpretation accompany each imaging series. Where appropriate, sonograms are correlated with CT scans and MR images for comparison and further evaluation. Colour flow sonography is emphasized throughout, in recognition of its increasing role in enhancing abdominal sonography.
