Description
This book meets the challenges of diagnostic imaging of the small intestine and enriches the understanding of small bowel neoplasms and the capabilities of diagnostic imaging. In recent years there has been a considerable increase in interest in the role of enteroclysis (small bowel enema) as a method of examining the small intestine. After this technique was refined, many radiologists have adopted it in the last decade. At the same time computed tomography has become widely used in abdominal disorders which can play a crucial role in the evaluation of small bowel neoplasms. Angiography has always been important for detecting neoplasms that present with bleeding. This volume is written in a comprehensive manner and is richly illustrated with 468 photographs of which 82 in full colour.
