This book will help the reader confused by a multiplicity of diseases responsible for similar symptoms in different patients. The chapters are noticeably sign-oriented rather than disease-oriented, each dealing with one of the four cardinal modalities of HRCT presentation. Each chapter is introduced by a list of diseases, immediately followed by a detailed description of each disease, and the chapters are illustrated with enlarged images giving rhythm to the written text.

Clinician's Guide to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
David Bellamy , Timothy Q. Howes
editore: Hodder Arnold
pagine: 144
Appropriate for the clinician managing COPD in either the primary or secondary care setting, "Clinicians' Guide to COPD" considers epidemiology, diagnosis and management, concentrating on how patients really present to the clinician. Aspects of disease prevention, including lifestyle change, particularly smoking cessation, are discussed in detail. Acute exacerbations of COPD, currently a major cause of mortality and morbidity in these patients, are also examined. Illustrative 'real-life' case histories have been included throughout, and the book also incorporates 'interesting asides', for example the impact of COPD on a patient awaiting surgery. With its practical focus, a balanced, readable style and clear explanatory colour illustrations, this book provides invaluable advice for both the primary care and specialist clinician looking after patients with COPD.
Understanding Respiratory Medicine
Martyn R. Partridge
editore: Manson Publishing Ltd
pagine: 176
In this concise practical guide the Editor and Authors combine a symptoms- and problem-based approach with systematic coverage of lung disease - to help students and young professionals to understand respiratory medicine in the round. The first section of the book is devoted to the underlying principles and clinical skills needed - science and disease process, symptoms and signs, examination, and tests. The second section deals with disease specific material, giving due weight and explanation to more common conditions. The third section covers respiratory pharmacology, and the fourth consists of multiple choice review questions. The book is illustrated throughout by case studies, plus photos and diagrams in full colour. Care of patients with respiratory illness is given by a multidisciplinary team, and Understanding Respiratory Medicine is designed to appeal to medical students, young doctor, specialist nurses, physiotherapists, physiological measurement technicians and clinical scientists.
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
A Clinical Guide

editore: Blackwell Publishing Ltd
pagine: 280
Prompting the first WHO global health alert for over a decade, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) was first recognised in South-East Asia in February 2003. With the causative agent now identified as a new strain of coronavirus, the medical world has gained important knowledge on the aetiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, pathogenesis, epidemiology, disease treatment and infection control with amazing speed. Despite this, major gaps remain in our understanding - the race is on to develop new cures and effective vaccines, and the long-term impact on health, society and economics are starting to unravel. "Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome: A Clinical Guide" meets the urgent need for a comprehensive, authoritative reference guide for everyone in the medical and scientific community engaged in the fight against SARS. This is a definitive book on SARS, clearly and accurately documenting the extraordinary medical and scientific events around this new epidemic. It is written by international experts in the field, with many contributors from the WHO and CDC. It will help reader to understand and prevent future outbreaks with a repeat of the same consequences.

editore: Lippincott Williams and Wilkins
pagine: 272
Written by recognized authorities on thoracic imaging, this volume is the first to examine all modalities - both noninvasive and invasive - for visualizing the airways. Emphasis is placed on correlating CT images with bronchoscopy, to aid in interpreting CT findings and in performing interventional bronchoscopic procedures. After a review of airway imaging techniques and anatomy, the book presents correlating CT and bronchoscopic images for a wide range of pathologic entities. Detailed chapters examine the trachea and central bronchi, the diagnosis of bronchiectasis, and the use of CT in diagnosing small airway disease. A chapter on functional imaging of the airways is also included.

Pneumotorace
editore: Minerva Medica
pagine: 64
Lo pneumotorace, nell'ambito della patologia dell'emergenza, riveste un'importanza del tutto particolare in quanto interessa, anzi coinvolge a livello interdisciplinare, non solo sul piano dottrinale ma anche sul piano teorico-pratico, sia il medico generale, cosiddetto di famiglia, che il medico dell'emergenza ospedaliera, il chirurgo di pronto soccorso e lo specialista di malattie del torace medico e chirurgo. L'eziopatogenesi traumatica, microbica, virale, degenerativa è stata sistematizzata con gli anni e risulta quanto mai aggiornata in questo testo. L'importanza delle tecniche di imaging, viene non solo confermata, ma anche accuratamente illustrata. Ma sono gli aspetti terapeutici invasivi, dal drenaggio tubulare del cavo pleurico a quelli più propriamente chirurgici, che vengono illustrati con chiarezza e dai quali vengono tratte precise e razionali indicazioni. Un'attenzione del tutto particolare viene riservata alla tecnica e alle indicazioni del trattamento videotoracoscopico della malattia. Gli Autori hanno creduto opportuno mettere a disposizione della collettività medica, in particolare quella che si confronta con l'emergenza di tutti i giorni, un testo aggiornato e completo, che risulti utile anche per gli specializzandi e per quegli studenti che hanno programmato, per il loro futuro, attività mediche generali o specialistiche del torace.
