Atlas of Thyroid Ultrasonography

Description

• Combines plentiful high-quality ultrasound scans side-by-side, with markings and without, for clear depictions of indications of thyroid conditions

•  

  Covers the normal thyroid, diffuse lesions, benign and malignant lesions and goiters, and rare findings

•  

  Nearly 1500 ultrasound scans, no more than six per page

   

Combining high-quality ultrasound scans with clear and concise explanatory text, this atlas includes side-by-side depictions of various conditions of the thyroid both with and without indicative marking. Each ultrasound finding is displayed twice, six figures per page: The left-hand image is a native figure without marks; the right-hand image depicts marked findings. In this way, readers have the opportunity to see the native picture to assess it by themselves and then correct their opinion, if necessary. Five sections comprise this atlas, including the normal thyroid, diffusethyroid lesions, both benign and malicious lesions (including various carcinomas), and rare findings. 

Including nearly 1500 ultrasound scans and covering the range of thyroid conditions, Atlas of Thyroid Ultrasonography will be a key reference for endocrinologists, radiologists, and primary care physicians, residents and fellows treating patients with thyroid problems.
