دانلود کتاب درسی رادیولوژی و تصویربرداری – جلد دوم

Radiology is a continuously evolving field. With each passing year, advancements in technology enable greater precision and improved safety. The adoption of digital tools, artificial intelligence and machine learning, coupled with a better understanding of the molecular basis of disease, has enabled the introduction of new therapies and altered decision pathways for patient care. The role of the radiologist is now central to treatment planning and disease monitoring, therefore making it vital for radiologists to not only provide diagnoses but also actively contribute to decision-making in patient care. The modern radiologist now, more than ever before, must have a strong foundational knowledge while adapting to the evolving technological advances. It is with this premise that we have adapted this new edition of Sutton’s Textbook of Radiology. It has been an honor to be invited by Elsevier to edit and update Sutton’s Textbook of Radiology, the gold standard and a key reference book for practicing radiologists over multiple generations. I have attempted to share my experiences as a radiologist, a journey that began when I learned radiology from my father, Dr. Sudarshan K. Aggarwal, perhaps one of the greatest visionaries of Indian Radiology. The Diwan Chand Aggarwal Imaging Center, started by my grandfather in 1924 and taken forward by my uncle Dr. Satyapal Aggarwal, was scaled to an institution under the stewardship of my father, and managed under one core tenet—patient first. This created an academic environment and pushed the institute to be a teaching center from where over 100 radiology residents completed their training and are now leading radiologists across the globe. I continue to follow this philosophy of combining high-quality clinical care and academic pursuit in my ongoing tenure at Max Healthcare, one of the largest healthcare providers in India. Despite the fact that the last revision of this book was in 2002, it has continued to be a favorite textbook among radiology residents, mainly because of the comprehensive coverage of each topic and the presentation style. We have preserved the unique style of the textbook and retained material that continues to be relevant even two decades later. This edition of Sutton is aimed at recreating an exhaustive resource and reference text for radiologists to solve diverse clinical scenarios using the latest and most appropriate technology, and develop a sound process-driven approach. New sections on radiology physics and techniques, pediatric radiology, interventional radiology, and emergency radiology have been added to make the book comprehensive. The first section includes chapters on quality assurance, structured reporting, information technology in radiology, and a primer in artificial intelligence—knowledge of which is now extremely important to practicing radiologists. The remaining sections have been reorganized to emphasize the need for sub-specialty radiology. Chapters on nuclear medicine and dental radiology provide the practicing radiologist with an understanding of all imaging-based diagnostic techniques available today. The evolving radiology lexicons that radiologists should use in their daily practice to communicate their findings for consistent care have also been incorporated into the book.
