S. Bhalla

From the author of our best-selling handbook on helical (spiral) CT comes a brand-new, indispensable, practical guide to the next generation of technology - multislice (or multidetector) CT. Multislice CT scanning protocols for specific clinical indications are presented in the same user friendly outline format as in Dr. Silverman’s other handbook. Images on the page opposite each protocol show the quality of scans that can be obtained and the author’s terminology allows the protocols to be used with equipment from any manufacturer. Features: - Covers the head, neck, chest, abdomen and pelvis, and musculoskeletal system. - Features expanded sections on pediatric applications and 3-D imaging. - Delivers information in a consistent, easy-to-follow format. Each protocol presents indications, scanner settings, oral contrast (where applicable), phase of respiration, slice thickness, pitch, exposure time, reconstruction interval, superior and inferior exam extent, and IV contrast. - Ensures a solid knowledge base by discussing the principles behind the recommended protocols. - Dr. Silverman and his renowned colleagues present detailed, easy to follow scanning protocols for all areas of the body, for paediatric examinations, and for three dimensional imaging. They also explain the principles behind the protocols.
