Description détaillée : Geriatric imaging 2nd edition volume 1

For this reason, it is essential to distinguish between healthy ageing and conditions that require medical intervention. This distinction is crucial to avoid overdiagnosis and overtreatment. Addressing this challenge is a central focus of Geriatric Imaging, which clearly outlines both the potential and the limitations of diagnostic imaging in geriatric patients. 

This Second edition builds on the success of the original edition published in 2013. The substantial addition of new information and expansion of content have made it necessary to divide the work into two independent volumes.

Volume 1 comprises 25 chapters covering topics such as Epidemiology of Ageing (Socioeconomic Impact) as well as Imaging of Disorders of the Breast, Cardiovascular System, Respiratory System, Head and Neck, and Central Nervous System.

It offers a comprehensive update of existing material including both text and illustrations, and introduces new chapters addressing these topics. Written by recognized experts in the field and richly illustrated, this book serves as an invaluable resource for geriatricians, radiologists, and trainees.
