DESCRIPTION:
The book offers guidance in detecting and evaluating all of the major scrotal diseases, making full use of all clinical imaging modalities--ultrasound (including color Doppler), computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, and angiography. For each clinical entity, the book considers pertinent epidemiology, associated clinical findings, modality-specific applications, and recommended imaging sequences, and illustrates the pathologic findings seen on images. Simulating clinical practice, the atlas presents clinical data from 130 cases. The final section of the book is a unique self-examination atlas that helps readers test and improve their skills in the analysis of scrotal images. Chapters are organized by anatomic site for quick reference, and cover all commonly seen diseases of the scrotum. The cases are illustrated with images from which the reader can make his/her own diagnosis and then compare it with the diagnosis given in the text. For each modality, the book provides complete coverage of imaging techniques, describes the specific risks and bioeffects, and identifies common imaging artifacts. Featuring more than 700 superb illustrations, this volume is the first up-to-date cor
Wonderful and visually unmatched text! Hricak's text is thorough, comprehensive and visually stunning. The 700 plus images contribute to an area of medicine that has been historically overlooked: the Scrotum. His use of cutting edge computer generated and digital imaging, accompanied by an austere yet revealing textual analysis make this text required reading for any medical professional or researcher working in the field of "Advanced Scrotal Dynamics". The asthetic merits of the word--s. Imagining the Scrotum packs alot in! A Customer Wow, as a major in Scrotal Dynamics I have seen all the literature out there on scrotums and this is the bomb! I thought I was an expert until I read Mr. Hricak's book, I mean never before have I actually seen the scrotum as not just a body part, but as a work of pure art. I cannot stroke Mr. Hricak's ego enough, this is a work of fantastic girth. The great songs he uses to help you remember in detail the dynamics of the scrotum operendi is worth th. "Topography taken to new highths!" according to Stephen LaCroix. Unquestionably one of the most profound topographic achievements of the 21st Century. What began as mere childhood fancy for Hedvig Hricak, has bloomed into the most supreme achievement of the modern Topographic sciences. No longer can any man dispute the supremacy of mans ability to map. I was amazed at the pure accuracy of which Hricak's atlas was composed , several times I found myself discovering moles and freckles on my own Scrotum which I had
