Head and Neck Ultrasonography

ABOUT THE BOOK
Beautifully illustrated in full-color, Head and Neck Ultrasonography is regarded as the first, as well as the definitive, English-language textbook of head and neck ultrasonography by and for clinicians and surgeons. This book comprehensively and effectively addresses fundamentals of ultrasound physics, equipment, normal head and neck ultrasound anatomy, and technique. Individual chapters cover specific anatomy and pathology. Interventional ultrasonography and dynamic ultra-sonography is discussed and new directions and techniques in ultrasonography are presented. Head and Neck Ultrasonography is unique in both its thoroughness and in its relevance to the clinical setting, where ultrasonographic examination is a dynamic and interactive process between physician and patient. In addition to numerous valuable examples of still ultrasound images throughout the text, a CD-ROM with video clips illustrating both the process and the interpretation of specific examinations and procedures is provided with the text. In response to the rapidly growing body of journal literature citing the utility and advantages of neck ultrasonography, especially in the management of thyroid disease, head and neck cancer, benign neoplasms and masses in the head in neck, Dr. Orloff, along with expert contributors, most of whom are surgeons, radiologists, endocrinologists, pathologists, and research scientists, have organized a complete textbook of head and neck ultrasonography, one to become the ideal complement to this surge in appreciation and utilization of ultrasonography.
