Atlas of Radiology in Head and Neck Trauma

This book will demonstrate current radiological techniques and an approach to their interpretation, in the assessment and management of patients presenting injuries above the collar bone.

This anatomical region is taken as a whole because trauma to the head commonly involves sites managed by different specialties, such as facial, ocular, head and cervical spine.

The entire "radiological package" for trauma to the head is therefore available in this one comprehensive and highly illustrated reference manual, avoiding the need to refer to multiple sources.

The key features of each main section, comprising the Face, Brain, Orbit and Eye, Upper Airway and so on, will include the identification and interpretation of symptoms and clinical signs as well as the mechanism of injury, as useful "clues" to the presence of injuries, which may not be obvious. The text will contain more clinical relevance to surgeons and radiologists alike, facilitating mutual understanding of the respective specialties.

The aim of this book is to enable the reader to understand how and why any particular image or radiological intervention is undertaken.

Aceasta carte va demonstra tehnicile radiologice actuale si o abordare a interpretarii lor, in evaluarea si gestionarea pacientilor care prezinta leziuni deasupra gulerului. Aceasta regiune anatomica este luata in ansamblu, deoarece traumatismele la nivelul capului implica de obicei locuri gestionate de diferite specialitati, cum ar fi ca facial, ocular, cap si coloana cervicala. Intregul „pachet radiologic” pentru traumatisme la nivelul capului este, prin urmare, disponibil in acest manual de referinta cuprinzator si foarte ilustrat, evitand nevoia de a face referire la mai multe surse. Caracteristicile cheie ale fiecarei sectiuni principale , cuprinzand fata, creierul, orbita si ochiul, caile respiratorii superioare si asa mai departe, vor include identificarea si interpretarea simptomelor si semnelor clinice, precum si mecanismul leziunii, ca „indicii” utile pentru prezenta leziunilor, care ar putea sa nu fii evident.
