The completely revised edition of this title in the popular Case Review series features all-new cases and superb-quality accompanying images that explore the newest imaging modalities, including new treatment guidelines for lung cancer, HIV/AIDS, and pneumonia. This complete study of thoracic imaging has been organized for quick reference and easy board and recertification review. Easily find and study the most challenging topics from among approximately 200 cases-organized by difficulty - and 400 images - with questions and answers, diagnoses, commentary, references, and cross-references to Thoracic Radiology: The Requisites.

Presents more than 145 high-yield case studies organized by level of difficulty, helping you build your knowledge and confidence in stages. All cases have been refreshed and rewritten to capture the latest clinical implications and diagnostic pearls on thoracic conditions that you will be tested on.

Includes multiple-choice questions, answers, and rationales that mimic the format of certification exams.

Uses short, easily digestible chapters covering the full range of thoracic imaging for efficient, effective learning and exam preparation.

Features hundreds of high-quality, full-color images (many new to this edition) representing a wide range of clinical situations encountered in thoracic imaging. Images include chest radiographs, CT, PET-CT, and MRI to help you expand your visual identification and diagnostic skills.

Clearly see and interpret 400 high-quality, state-of-the-art images representing a wide range of clinical situations encountered in thoracic imaging.
Get fresh perspectives from 200 updated or new cases reflecting the most recent changes in thoracic imaging, including PET-CT, emerging pulmonary infections, smoking-related lung diseases, Fleischner guidelines for management of incidentally detected lung nodules, and ground glass and part-solid lung nodules.
Spend less time searching and more time learning with easy-to-navigate chapters focused on visual identification and diagnosis, and reorganized by degree of case difficulty.
