Comprehensive Radiographic Pathology, 5e Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Covering the disease processes most frequently diagnosed with medical imaging, Comprehensive Radiographic Pathology, 5th Edition provides the essential pathology knowledge needed to produce quality radiographic images. It includes a general overview of physiology, and covers disorders and injuries by body system with descriptions of the pathology, its radiographic appearance, and treatment. Now in full color, this reference includes the latest information on CT, MRI, SPECT, PET, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine, plus the always-popular Radiographer Notes with tips for digital imaging and patient care. Expert authors Ronald L. Eisenberg and Nancy M. Johnson provide complete preparation for the classroom and for clinical practice!Comprehensive coverage helps you produce optimal images by understanding disease processes and their radiographic appearance.High-quality radiographs and images clearly demonstrate the clinical manifestations of different disease processes and represent the quality images needed in radiography practice.A body systems approach makes it easy to locate and study information, with each chapter describing general physiology and then explaining various pathologic conditions and their radiographic appearance and treatment.A discussion of specialized imaging techniques includes the full range of imaging modalities that may be needed to ensure correct diagnosis of pathologies, including ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), or positron emission tomography (PET).Treatment sections explain the most likely treatment for each pathology along with its prognosisRadiographer Notes include tips for producing optimal radiographs along with patient management recommendations.Summary Findings tables offer a quick reference to related pathologies, including location in the body, radiographic appearances, and treatments.Study aids include an outline, key terms, objectives, and review questions for every chapter.Useful appendices include an extensive glossary, list of major prefixes, roots, and suffixes with definitions and examples. Updated content prepares you for today's practice with the latest on morbidity, mortality, and epidemiology; invasive squamous cell carcinoma; scoliosis; joint replacements; chest tubes and lines; MRSA (antibiotic-resistant staph infection); systemic and highly infectious diseases; more on fusion imaging, CT, MRI, SPECT, PET and correlation with radiography; new CT/MR images for correlation with radiographs; and Radiographer Notes updated with digital imaging information. NEW full-color illustrations are added, and updated images add realistic detail for MRI, CT, sonography, and fusion PET/CT.

Very disappointed. I have just found out I was a sold a book, that I am sure, was illegally reproduced and sold as new. My classmates books are in color and mine seems to be in black and white. The writing is messed up in a lot of spots also.
The book came in great condition and I will be using it for my pathology course in one week. I've already read a chapter and I think that the author explains things much more thoroughly than some other authors that I have been forced to learn from. For me, many of the subjects are review from what I've previously learned, but increased knowledge and the depth in which the author goes into helps me to understand even more about certain diseases and how to effectively take an image with the right technique. It broadens my awareness of certain conditions and I think I'll have a better idea on what to do when I encounter them.Also, the company did a great job packaging the book and it did not appear damaged at all, plus the item arrived more quickly than the estimated delivery time. Also, I spoke with customer service right after purchasing the book to ensure it's timely delivery and they are very nice and easy to get a hold of if you had any concerns.
I have only had this book for 6 days and it has already started coming apart. When I mentioned it in class about 10 other students laughed and held their books up to show the pages falling out. I hope this problem is fixed soon, because I saw another review that mentioned the same problem. Have also noted many typos in the answer key for the workbook and am only on chapter 2.
What can I say about this book.?? It was required for the class and we had to have it..Books came in good shape and on time, so all is well... Came within the 2 day shipment, so No waiting, get a head start on checking out what my daughter will be studying in the next semester..She loves going to Methodist University Schools of Radiologic and Imaging Sciences at the Methodist University Hospital, Memphis,TN...
This was a great price and it was needed for my class. No need to go and buy brand new or pay a ton of money. This is a great descriptive book on pathologies. It has excellent example images to go along with the readings. The readings themselves are descriptive and easy to follow and understand. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a better understanding of pathologies and works in the Radiographer/Ultrasonographer/MRI tech/CT tech fields.
Bought this book as a required text for daughter attending Radiologic Technology School. Good reference material. Only downside to the book is the soft cover. As this will be a book she keeps throughout her career, it would be better to be hardcover.
Book was ok, but a bit scattered in some sections. Pathology is a difficult subject to write about, but I though the book could have been better illustrated and organized.
The copy of this textbook I received was only in black and white. The rest of my class has books in color and with glossy pages. All the material is the same but some of the detail of the images is lost.
