Plain film patterns in the differential diagnosis of chest disease are emphasized in this volume, with the chapters uniformly formatted to set up a framework for analyzing the abnormal lung pattern, each chapter with a multiple choice quiz on illustrated cases, outline charts and discussion. The bulk of plain films, CT and some MRI scans are included, as are pathological slides and microscopic findings as appropriate. This fourth edition includes updated coverage of AIDS and a thorough review of lung cancer staging.
