| abdominal wall muscles ct anatomy: CT of the Peritoneum Armando Rossi, Giorgio Rossi, 2012-12-06 I have not embarked on the foreword to this scientific monograph by Armando and Gior gio ROSSI in the expectation that it will be an easy task, because these two authors are the last remaining members of a family that has left its mark in the field of radiology in our country: therefore, the writer's enthusiasm and detachment could be jeopardized by mem ories of his own teachers and elders and the respect he still feels towards them. The line stretches from Armando Rossi Sr., a pioneer in the field of radiology in Italy, a scientist and a versatile teacher, a student of Beclere and Busi, to Lucio Rossi, an eminent teacher,a learned man and a gentleman. An official biographyofArmando Rossi shows that in his last years, his wide didactic interests were directed towards his own family, leading him to devote his attention to those of his grandchildren who were then getting ready to embrace the medical profession. |

| abdominal wall muscles ct anatomy: Imaging Pelvic Floor Disorders Steve Halligan, Clive I. Bartram, Frederik M. Kelvin, John O.L. DeLancey, Jaap Stoker, 2013-11-11 A major breakthrough in the understanding of pelvic floor disorders has been achieved by the introduction of MRI into clinical research. Indeed, this cross-sectional non-invasive technique not only provides superior depiction of the pelvic anatomy but also yields unique dynamic information due to the rapid acquisition of images. Imaging, and especially MRI, is nowadays increasingly utilised in clinical practice for patients suffering from pelvic floor dysfunction, and it is imperative that all radiologists involved in the care of these patients be fully informed about the rapidly emerging potential of radiologic imaging in handling these problems. This book is the fruit of a collaborative effort by radiologists and surgeons. Professor Clive Bartram and Professor John DeLancey have been involved in research into pelvic floor disorders for many years and are well known worldwide for their pioneering work in this complex field. The editors have been successful in engaging a number of experts with outstanding qualifications as contributors to the different individual chapters of this superb book, which provides a comprehensive overview of our current knowledge on pelvic disorders. I am confident that this splendid volume will meet with great interest from radiologists and all other clinicians involved in the care of the large and increasing group of patients suffering from incontinence and utero-vaginal prolapse. I sincerely wish it the same success with readers achieved by the previous volumes published in this series. |
| abdominal wall muscles ct anatomy: Abdominal and Pelvic MRI A. Heuck, M. Reiser, 2012-12-09 While MRI has proved itself to be an excellent diagnostic noninvasive modality for imaging of the brain, medulla, and musculoskeletal system due to its high intrinsic con trast resolution and tissue characterisation potential based on the judicious application of specific sequences, this has not been the case in the abdomen and pelvis. The reasons are the long exposure time and the lower spatial resolution, inherent to MRI. However, during recent years considerable process has been achieved in MRI of the abdominal and pelvic organs due to the development of new and more rapid imaging sequences and the routine clinical application of specific magnetic resonance contrast media. Consequently for some anatomical areas such as the female genital organs and the biliary system MRI is already the best performing morphological diagnostic modality. However, the question arises as to wether MRI, given its performance capabilities, should not also be considered a primary diagnostic modality for the study of parenchymal organs like the liver, spleen, and pancreas, and not merely as a complen tary modality to solve residual problems after ultrasonography and computed tomog raphy have been performed. Although the future role of MRI in respect of the gas trointestinal tube itself is still somewhat unclear, some possibilities for routine clinical use are becoming visible even in this abdominal field. |

| abdominal wall muscles ct anatomy: Muscle Injuries in Sports Hans-W. Mueller-Wohlfahrt, Peter Ueblacker, Lutz Haensel, 2013-06-12 The first book to focus exclusively on muscle injuries in sports! Accounting for the majority of sports-related disorders, injuries of the skeletal muscles have been difficult to define, classify, and treat mainly due to a lack of scientific background and missing guidelines. Now, for the first time, readers will find full coverage of muscle anatomy, physiology, diagnosis, imaging, treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention in one comprehensive volume. It includes a standardized terminology and new classification system, both based on a consensus conference that took place in 2011 in Munich. Special Features: Written by top international sports medicine physicians who have more than 35 years of experience treating competitive athletes, including the German national soccer team Emphasizes practice-oriented content with a scientific foundation Shares dozens of case studies that highlight injury assessment, pitfalls, and complications Provides more than 500 vivid, full-color illustrations and photographs, including detailed anatomic diagrams and tables At a time when athletic muscle injuries have increasingly become the focus of research and clinical studies, especially due to their frequency and impact on player absence, this book makes an enormous contribution to the field. It is essential reading for all sports medicine physicians, residents and fellows, physical therapists, coaches, and other practitioners involved in caring for athletes. |
| abdominal wall muscles ct anatomy: Fundamentals of Hernia Radiology Salvatore Docimo Jr., Jeffrey A. Blatnik, Eric M. Pauli, 2023-03-16 This book offers a complete focus on the radiographic analysis of the abdominal wall and hernias. An estimated 20 million hernias are repaired annually throughout the world. As the technology utilized to complete hernia repairs becomes more complex, surgeons are required to have a more thorough understanding of the radiographic anatomy and diagnostic modalities used to evaluate hernias. Furthermore, the amount that now goes into the preoperative planning of hernias for complex repairs (such robotic and open transversus abdominis muscle release procedures) requires an understanding of radiology and the ability to identify nuances of anatomy offered by the imaging. The use of mesh and extent of re-do hernia repairs has also complicated radiographic evaluation of hernias. The text is a comprehensive review of abdominal wall imaging broken down into individual types of hernia. Each hernia type is discussed with consideration to the best type of imaging evaluation, unique radiographic findings and considerations prior to repair. Representative images, diagrams and videos are used to point out anatomy and features of the hernia. This text offers the first-of-its-kind standardized approach to evaluating hernias radiographically. Most importantly, each hernia and chapter is approached with the surgeon in mind, meaning, authors explain the radiology based on anatomy and with a plan for surgical repair on the horizon. Select chapters include illuminating videos to give context to the text. This is an ideal guide for practicing surgeons and trainees treating patients with hernias. |

| abdominal wall muscles ct anatomy: Dynamic Radiology of the Abdomen Morton A. Meyers, 1982 Sinee the publieation of the First Edition of Dynamie Radiology of the Abdomen: Normal and Pathologie Anatomy six years ago, literally hundreds ofseientifie articles in the literature have attested to its basic insights in the understanding and clinieal diagnosis ofa speetrum ofintraabdominal diseases. Based on radiologie correlations with anatomieand pathologie features, the observations have proven readily applieable and highly accurate by ultrasonography and particularly com puted tomography (CT) . This edition is designed to provide a eomprehensiveupdateofthese prineiples and their clinieal applieations, to include not only plain films and eonventional contrast studies, but also ultrasonography and CT. To aeeomplish these ends, some seetions have been eompletely rewritten and new seetions and ehapters have been added. Over 503 illustrations have been added, many of them CT images. The atlas of anatomie cross-sections in color has been retained, and these as weIl as all CT images are now oriented aeeording to the eonvention generally adopted shortly after the First Edition was published, i. e., as if viewed from below with the subjects's right to the viewer's left. While a few of the CT illustrations are not of the highest quality, the reader will understand that they havebeen earefullyseleeted for the particularabnormality they demonstrate. The rcferenees have been updated to eite not only classie articles, but seleetions from the literature through 1981. Partieular appreeiation is expressed to the following for their cooperation: james L. Clements, jr., M.D., jaek Farman, M.D., Gary Ghahremani, M.D. |
| abdominal wall muscles ct anatomy: Radiology of Non-Spinal Pain Procedures Mubin I. Syed, Azim Shaikh, 2010-10-20 This handy, well-illustrated manual has been designed to meet the need of interventional pain physicians to understand the radiologic imaging involved in the performance of non-spinal pain procedures. It provides information on such topics as radiologic anatomy, the radiologic manifestations of indications and contraindications to interventional procedures, and the radiologic appearance of complications that may arise from these procedures. In addition, it will be useful for the diagnostic radiologist, who may be unaware of many of the interventional pain procedures. The chosen format will ensure that the reader is quickly able to reference any given procedure. As this is a guidebook, it does not encompass every pathologic entity that may be encountered; however, the commonly performed non-spinal pain procedures are included. This text will prove essential for any interventionalist who does not have easy access to a radiologist and vice versa. |
