Computed Tomography of the Gastrointestinal Tract
Author: Morton A. Meyers, MD, FACR, FACG
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461248825
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 481
Book Description
This book is designed as a comprehensive, useful, up-to-date presenta tion of computed tomography (CT) of the major disease states involving the gastrointestinal tract, mesentery and peritoneal cavity. Rather than representing one institution's sole experience, the coverage reflects masterful contributions from international centers with the most exten sive experience. Plain £lm identification of intraperitoneal structures is generally lim ited to those aspects outlined by contrasting extraperitoneal fat or naturally occurring intraluminal gas. Routine contrast studies of the intestinal tract permit visualization of its internal mucosal contour alone. An outstanding limitation has been the inability to accurately evaluate the thickness of the bowel wall. In these circumstances, only indirect signs are relied upon for the radiologic diagnosis of mural or serosal disease. Approaches to visualize the bowel wall and perito neal reflections by the introduction of intraperitoneal contrast medium have been of only limited success (1-3). Computed tomography, by virtue of its superior density discrimination and excellent spatial resolu tion, permits exquisite imaging of the gastrointestinal tract, mesenter ies and peritoneal cavity. In the presentation of normal and pathologic anatomy and the discus sion of clinical efficacy, efforts have been made to keep the text as precise as possible. In the elaboration of CT's capability to detect and to determine the extent of disease, particularly as the findings relate to staging, insights and responsible conclusions are drawn for the accuracy, relia bility, limitations and sources of error for the study.

Endoscopy in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Author: Richard Kozarek
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319110772
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
This book conjoins the latest advances on the use of endoscopy to diagnose, monitor, and treat patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Chapters include the historical use of rigid sigmoidoscopy, non-interventional imaging procedures, and the correlation of pathology and endoscopic visualization. This is the first book to include individual chapters in gastroenterology, colorectal surgery, and IBD texts, the preeminent role of endoscopic imaging in the management of chronic ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease. It also includes chapters on capsule endoscopy and balloon and overtube-assisted enteroscopy to define the presence and activity of Crohn's enteritis and additional chapters defining the use of random biopsies versus chromoendoscopy, and computer enhanced imaging to define possible dysplasia development. The book also includes access to online videos, making it the ultimate verbal and visual tool for all medical professionals interested in the advances in the field over the last several decades. Endoscopy in Inflammatory Bowel Disease is a concise text that is of great value to practicing endoscopists, gastroenterologists, general or colorectal surgeons, physicians in training, and all medical professionals caring for patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
