Martin GravesUniversity of Cambridge, UK

Thomas HatsukamiUniversity of Washington, USA

Chun YuanUniversity of Washington, USA

Stroke is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, with carotid disease representing an important contributory risk factor. This book is about the pathogenesis and management of carotid disease with specific focus on the role imaging has to play in the early recognition as well as treatment of the developed condition.

➤ Provides comprehensive coverage of the widest range of imaging modalities.

➤ Critically reviews the roles these can play in recognising and managing carotid disease.

➤ Valuable to all those involved in the treatment of patients with carotid disease as well as those involved in researching and developing new therapeutic approaches.

Clinical MR NeuroimagingDiffusion, Perfusion and SpectroscopyEdited by Jonathan H. GillardUniversity of Cambridge, UK

Adam D. WaldmanCharing Cross Hospital, London, UK

Peter B. BarkerThe Johns Hopkins University, USA

The physiological magnetic resonance techniques of diffusion imaging, perfusion imaging and spectroscopy offer insights into brain structure, function and metabolism. Until recently, they were mainly applied within the realm of medical research, but with their increasing availability on clinical MRI machines, they are now coming into clinical practice for the evaluation of neuropathology in individual patients. This book provides the reader with a thorough review of the underlying physical principles of each of these methods, as well as broad coverage of their clinical applications.

‘… a book that bridges a gap in the market, addressing both the technical aspects of diffusion, perfusion and spectroscopy and their clinical applications … I can highly recommend this book to those wishing to learn more about the technical aspects and clinical applications of diffusion, perfusion and spectroscopy. Without doubt this book should be in the library of neuroimaging centres.’

Martin J. GravesUniversity of Cambridge and Addenbrooke’s NHS Trust, UK

Martin R. PrinceCornell University, New York, USA

Presenting the basics of MR practice and theory in a unique way: backwards! The subject is approached just as a new MR practitioner would encounter MRI: starting from the images, equipment and scanning protocols, rather than pages of physics theory. Additional explanations for the more technically inquisitive are given in optional secondary text boxes. The new edition is fully up-dated to reflect the most recent advances, and includes a new chapter on parallel imaging.

Review from the 1st edition ‘Finally there is a book that deals with all aspects of MR practice and theory in a format that will encourage those who are new to this area that they are not out of their depth. All in all I feel this is one of the best-written and comprehensive MR texts available for those new to MRI as well as those with years of MR experience under their belts.’

Each volume in Contemporary Issues in Cancer Imaging – A Multidisciplinary Approach is edited by an expert guest editor with contributions from all members of the multidisciplinary team, thus bringing together expertise from many specialties to promote the understanding and application of modern imaging in overall patient management.

Colorectal CancerEdited by Gina BrownRoyal Marsden Hospital

Colorectal cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in the developed world. The last five years have seen dramatic improvements in the multidisciplinary management of this malignancy. In this volume, experts at the forefront of these advances contribute their knowledge and experience on the major advances that have occurred in diagnosis, staging, preoperative and adjuvant therapy, surgery and follow-up assessment of patients with this disease.

Cancer of the OvaryEdited by Rodney ReznekSt. Bartholomew’s Hospital, London

Ovarian cancer is not only the commonest but also the most lethal gynaecological malignancy, partly because the majority of patients present with advanced disease. Nevertheless, the management of patients with ovarian neoplasms has changed substantially recently, with improved survival due to better screening strategies, major advances in chemotherapy and the constantly evolving role of surgery. Optimal patient care is best achieved by a multidisciplinary team, with imaging playing a pivotal role. The explosion of technological developments in imaging in recent years has meant that all members of the team should understand the potential applications, limitations and advantages of evolving imaging techniques.

Carcinoma of the KidneyEdited by Uday PatelSt George’s Hospital, London

The last two decades have seen ground-shifting changes in the epidemiology, genetics, diagnosis and management of renal cancer. Advances in diagnosis have led to many tumours being identified at an asymptomatic stage. There have also been parallel advances in treatment, such as nephron sparing procedures and radiologically guided ablative procedures. However, these changes have brought with them dilemmas such as our ability to evaluate the nature and aggressiveness of early stage tumours and how best to identify those patients who will benefit most from early treatment. This practical, clinically-oriented volume focuses on these current diagnostic and clinical challenges, making it relevant to all members of the multidisciplinary cancer care team.

Despite the world-wide drive to increase awareness of the risks of smoking, lung cancer remains a global problem. Imaging plays a central role in this multidisciplinary approach; this is reflected in the present volume. Individual chapters focus on imaging (including screening, diagnosis of symptomatic cases and staging), pathology and treatment options in lung cancer. Due to recent interest in the potential role of PET for a variety of malignancies, a separate chapter is devoted to this technique.
