MRI of the Liver: Imaging Techniques, Contrast Enhancement, Differential Diagnosis
Due to the
latest developments in magnetic resonance imaging for the
evaluation of liver pathology, a second, completely revised and enlarged
edition of this book was
felt necessary – despite only three years
having elapsed since the first edition.
All chapters from the first edition have been revised and enriched
with additional
illustrations and information. New chapters have been
added covering
important and highly relevant topics, among which imaging
of
pseudolesions, imaging of
neoplastic diseases in pediatric subjects,
imaging of bile ducts,
MR angiography and imaging pre and post liver
transplantation.
Particular attention has been paid to the differential use of
contrast agents with emphasis placed on the authors’ broad experience of
MR imaging of focal liver lesions using different contrast agents. The
diverse mechanisms of action of all
MR contrast agents applicable for
liver imaging are explained in detail and comparative
examples are
provided.
As was the case with the first edition, this
book will prove
invaluable to radiologists wishing to further expand or consolidate
their
routine approach to
MR imaging of the
liver
