As more anaesthetists become involved in critical care and other areas of perioperative management, they need to be able to request radiological investigations, and interpret the results quickly and accurately. This concise and fully illustrated book covers the key aspects of imaging that are of relevance to anaesthetists and intensivists, and examines all imaging modalities that are likely to be called upon such as plain film, CT, MRI and NMR. The book is organised logically by body system for ease of access to information and is written by a team of radiologists, surgeons and anaesthetists, providing a multidisciplinary perspective. Trainee and practising anaesthetists, intensivists and all healthcare professionals involved in perioperative patient care.
