Featuring more than 700 superb illustrations, this volume is the first up-to-date correlative imaging text and atlas for the definitive diagnosis of scrotal diseases. The book offers guidance in detecting and evaluating all of the major scrotal diseases, making full use of all clinical imaging modalities--ultrasound (including color Doppler), computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, and angiography. For each modality, the book provides complete coverage of imaging techniques, describes the specific risks and bioeffects, and identifies common imaging artifacts. Chapters are organized by anatomic site for quick reference, and cover all commonly seen diseases of the scrotum. For each clinical entity, the book considers pertinent epidemiology, associated clinical findings, modality-specific applications, and recommended imaging sequences, and illustrates the pathologic findings seen on images. The final section of the book is a unique self-examination atlas that helps readers test and improve their skills in the analysis of scrotal images. Simulating clinical practice, the atlas presents clinical data from 130 cases.
The cases are illustrated with images from which the reader can make his/her own diagnosis and then compare it with the diagnosis given in the text
